2024 Specialized S-Works Epic World Cup — Upgraded to RockShox Flight Attendant
This is as close to a World Cup race bike as civilian money can buy — and then some. The stock S-Works Epic World Cup is already a weapon, but the addition of the RockShox Flight Attendant suspension system transforms it into what many consider the most technologically advanced XC bike ever sold to the public.
The S-Works FACT 12m carbon frame is built around Specialized's WCID (World Cup Integrated Design) suspension platform — a unique "set and forget" system that looks almost exactly like a hardtail 99 Spokes but hides 75mm of rear travel in a package that weighs less than most hardtails. The geometry is purpose-built for modern XC racing: longer, lower, and more confident than any previous Epic generation.
The Flight Attendant upgrade is the star of the show. A mini-computer on the fork relies on a bunch of sensors to evaluate the riding situation and selects one of three damping modes accordingly — Wide Open for maximum sensitivity and traction, Sprint-on-Lock for maximum pedaling efficiency, and Magic Middle as an intermediate setting. ENDURO Mountainbike The suspension flawlessly adjusts to the terrain and your power output, and the improvement in pedaling efficiency is noticeable from the very first ride. Specialized.com
The S-Works Epic 8 comes ready to win a World Cup right off the showroom floor with a full SRAM XX Eagle SL Transmission, Level Ultimate Stealth brakes, and a SRAM XX SL Eagle power meter crankset — a key component to RockShox's Flight Attendant function. Mountain Bike Action The Roval Control SL carbon wheelset with DT Swiss 180 ceramic bearing internals rounds out a build that has literally won World Cup races.
According to Specialized, the new Epic 8 absorbs 12% more bumps while being 20% more pedaling efficient than the old Epic EVO. ENDURO Mountainbike Christopher Blevins and Haley Batten have taken World Cup wins on nearly this exact build.
