Whether it’s quick after-work spins or long weekend rides, the Specialized Epic Evo is one ofthe Herd’s most traveled bikes.

The RockShox Super Deluxe+ rear shock soaks up trail chatter and throws down tons of gripping traction to keep us locked to the ground. Lastly, lightweight 29-inch Roval Control alloy rims are durable and are paired with DT Swiss 350 hubs for quality performance and engag…
