THINK FASTEST: The Epic World Cup is the fastest XC race bike on the planet, designed for smooth to moderately technical courses where speed, control, and lightweight performance reign supreme. As World Champion Christopher Blevins puts it, “This thing gives me everything I could want from a hardtail, plus the control and capability of full suspension.” Achieving this speed machine took an integrated development approach, the invention of a radical new shock, and four decades of off-road racing experience.

FRAME OF REFERENCE: To maximise speed with unparalleled power transfer and precise handling, our engineering team redefined standards in torsional rigidity and bottom bracket stiffness. The result? A structurally superior double diamond frame layout with a shock integrated into the top tube, finished with the most advanced composite layup in Specialized history.

SHOCKINGLY FAST: The Specialized Ride Dynamics team developed a revolutionary shock for the Epic World Cup that combines the snappy efficiency of a hardtail with the control and momentum-carrying ability of full suspension—all with an easy setup. Co-developed with RockShox, the SID Deluxe WCID shock features independently adjustable positive and negative air springs, offering the "snap" of a hardtail with the forgiving ability to tackle rough terrain. Its simple setup allows for fine-tuning, providing a range from firm to soft for any rider preference or course.

PUNCHING ABOVE ITS CATEGORY: With just 75mm of rear travel, the Epic World Cup delivers the control and performance of bikes with much longer travel. Designed to be ridden close to the top of its travel range, it mimics the feel of a 100mm bike with 25% sag. To optimise suspension performance, the Ride Dynamics team tuned the spring rate through the mid-stroke for better bump control. Featuring the custom Mega Jounce Bumper—an industry first—this bike handles bottom-out on big hits with ease.

HAVE WE LOST OUR MINDS? The groundbreaking SID Deluxe WCID shock provides rear suspension support and compliance, while the RockShox SID SL with 3-Position Race Day 2 damper, featuring the all-new Epic 8s “Magic Middle” tune, offers excellent pedalling support and 110mm of smooth, active suspension for maximum efficiency.

THE WEIGHT IS OVER: Weighing in at just 1,915 grams (painted with shock and hardware), the Epic World Cup is lighter than its closest competitors. This translates to quicker acceleration, better climbing efficiency, and more agile handling—all adding up to speed. The frame’s lightweight and stiffness come from lessons learned during the development of the Aethos, our lightest production road frame, which uses an advanced composite layup and optimised tube shapes.

The new Epic World Cup features Ride Dynamics-developed suspension technology and 75mm of rear travel. Thanks to its innovative shock, it delivers unparalleled pedal efficiency and is ready to tackle even the toughest descents—no lockout switches necessary.

The SRAM XO drivetrain provides precise shifting performance that meets the rigorous demands of modern XC racing.

A RockShox SID SL with a 3-Position Race Day 2 damper offers exceptional support under pedalling and 110mm of active suspension, delivering optimal efficiency.

Hand-built Roval Control carbon wheels, with a modern 29mm internal-width hookless rim, provide the perfect balance of strength, ride quality, and durability while keeping weight low—carrying on a long World Cup lineage.

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.
