Specialized Women's S-Works Epic

Experience the thrill of speed and unmatched efficiency with our Women's S-Works Epic - 'Specialized's' ultimate cross-country offering specially designed to give a riding experience like no other. Expertly made with a refined Rider-First Engineered™ design, cutting-edge Brain suspension, and a new frame design, this bicycle ensures the ultimate performance on the trails.

With racing courses becoming more complex, technical, and challenging, we've stayed ahead of the curve, pioneering designs that integrate seamlessly with the rising demands of present-day biking. This bicycle offers a remarkable balance, reach, grip, and stability that makes high-speed rides and steep descents safe and enjoyable. Deep curves, sharp corners, and switchbacks are a breeze with the slacker head angle and adjusted fork offset, making the bike agile and responsive.

Our significant breakthrough is the Brain 2.0 technology—a complete overhaul of our acclaimed Brain technology. We positioned the Brain closer to the rear axle for increased sensitivity, providing better damping performance and smoother rides. The new Brain integrates with the suspension link, improvising oil paths, and providing an elegantly sleek package that outdoes other suspensions on the market.

We've also boosted stiffness with the redesigned Rider-First Engineered™ tubes strategically for improved management and control. The unique size-specific tubes ensure the optimal rigidness in every frame size, leading to a stable and secure ride on the S-Works Epic.

As our pursuit to create the lightest XC mountain bike, we focused on minimizing weight wherever possible. We achieved this through an efficient frame layout, straight tubes with minimal curves, integrated channels through the shock extension, and optimized torsion profiles in every section. This has shed nearly 350 grams, equivalent to removing a chainstay and shock extension from the previous model.

Our top-of-the-line S-Works model includes a custom RockShox SID World Cup fork with the exclusive Brain technology, SRAM XX1 Eagle groupset for diverse gearing, powerful SRAM Level Ultimate brakes, and featherweight hand-crafted Roval Control SL carbon wheels reinforce speed, strength whilst delivering efficient and crisp gear shifting.

The S-Works FACT 12m carbon fibre frame is the perfect blend of stiffness, strength, and lightweight, making it the optimal choice for speed and efficiency. Add to it the new geometry and RockShox Brain shock, and you have the fastest handling XC bike in your hands.
The custom RockShox SID WC fork with Brain offers a full-carbon upper, top-adjust Brain fade, and a custom offset, delivering an unprecedented match to the all-new Women's S-Works Epic.
The SRAM XX1 Eagle components provide versatile shifting capabilities, ensuring both climbing and descending remain within reach.
