Remember when cross country didnt always involve a starting gun? So do we.

And, while itll never turn down a number plate, Epic EVO is well-acquainted with the fact that the next ridgeline makes a perfectly good finish line too, offering an incredible combination of pedaling efficiency and impressive trail-taming capability to get you there faster.

While the Epic EVO sees a seemingly modest 20-millimeter increase in suspension travel up front over its Epic stablemate and just 10-millimeters out back, weve worked overtime to make sure its been implemented in a way thatll have you saying Whoa! as soon as you hit your first stretch of singletrack.

Meticulously engineered to retain as much of the Epics standard-setting efficiency as possible, the EVOs new suspension kinematics work in concert with our Rx XC shock tune to ensure youre able to make the absolute most out of every inch of travel on tap, while still offering increased anti-squat characteristics for improved pedaling efficiency.

With plenty of practice at staying ahead of the curve, the Epic EVO now lays claim to the most capable iteration of our Progressive XC Geometry ever to grace an Epic. Its also more versatile than ever thanks to a new flip chip-equipped rear end that allows riders to adjust headtube angle and bottom bracket height to easily customize the Epic EVOs handling characteristics.

Epic EVOs flyweight FACT 11m carbon frame features heavy-hitting SRAM components and RockShox suspension for a package tailor-made for making miles disappear faster than ever.
