MEN EPIC S-Works EVO 12 speed XTR M-9100 – L

Ever been in the middle of stage race or a massive backcountry ride and needed just a little more margin for error on the descents? Yeah, we’ve been there, too. And that’s why we made the perfect ultra-light, ultra-fast bike for precisely those situations.A MORE EPIC KIND OF EPICDropper posts and slightly longer forks may seem like overkill on an XC bike. We beg to differ. Epic EVOs are not only fast off the start line, they’re even better suited to masochistically long rides, multi-day stage races, and fast backcountry missions.HARDTAIL EFFICIENT.
