Riding trails at high speed, descending down valleys, or giving a virtually-tangible high five to your mates - the Epic 8 EVO Comp brings an exuberant dash of fun to it all.

  • Unmatched Capability: Be prepared to be amazed by the Epic 8 EVO Comp's progressive geometry that smoothly ushers in unprecedented capability in handling technical terrains. Boasting rigorous lateral and torsional rigidity, this bike guarantees precise handling. With an elevated travel of 130mm upfront and trail-orientated specifications, the Epic 8 EVO’s Comp readily embraces rough terrains.
  • Bump Compliance: Forget all about fatigue with the Epic 8 EVO Comp's shock-absorption capacity. Compared to the last generation, the new Epic 8 EVO absorbs 12% more of the bumps and vibrations, ensuring a smooth ride no matter how gnarly the trail is.
  • Ride Dynamics: Epic 8 EVO Comp's shock is tuned with custom valving developed by the specialized Ride Dynamics team. With the optimised damper settings, altered leverage rates, and new kinematics, expect a bicycle that heightens your ride performance.
  • Biomechanical Efficiency: With optimized suspension kinematics, the Epic 8 EVO Comp slashes pedal-induced bobbing by 20%. This reduction not only ensures efficient pedalling, but also effectively manages bump forces.
  • Fully Loaded: All Epic 8 EVO Comp models come with a handy SWAT 4.0 to take care of your trail essentials. Plus, an integrated steering stop avoids potential top tube scarring in case of crashes or bar spins.

Cycle to Work Scheme: Affordable Riding for UK Employees

Unlock a cost-effective way to own the bike of your dreams through the Cycle to Work Scheme. This initiative, available to employees in the UK, lets you enjoy the benefits of cycling while saving on your bike purchase.

With the Cycle to Work Scheme, you can use your pre-tax salary to acquire a brand-new bicycle and essential cycling accessories. This means significant savings for you, as your salary sacrifice reduces both your income tax and National Insurance contributions.

The process is seamless: Choose the bike that suits your needs and budget from our extensive range. Your employer will then set up a salary sacrifice arrangement, spreading the cost of your bike over a specified period, typically 12 to 18 months.

Once the salary sacrifice period ends, you have the option to own the bike outright for a nominal fee, ensuring you get to keep and enjoy your trusted two-wheeled companion for years to come.

Experience the freedom of cycling, save money, and reduce your carbon footprint with the Cycle to Work Scheme. Join countless UK employees who have already embraced this eco-friendly and wallet-friendly way of commuting.
