Returns and refunds

If you are unhappy with your item, please let us know. Our Returns Policy gives you 30 days to return or exchange an item bought with a valid receipt. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase, we cannot offer you a refund or exchange.To be eligible for a refund or exchange, goods must be returned in a re-saleable condition. That means your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. The item must be in the original packaging and returned with any accessories, labels and “free gifts” or bonus items.

To complete your refund or exchange, we require a receipt or proof of purchase.

Under the Consumer Rights Act of 2015 you have an early right to reject goods that are unsatisfactory quality, unfit for purpose or not as described, and get a full refund.

But this right is limited to 30 days from the date you took ownership of the goods (this could be the date of purchase or the date the goods were delivered to you - whichever is later).

After the initial 30 days, you can't demand a full refund in the first instance, but you still have the right to a repair or replacement.

How to return your item(s):

As soon as your return has been processed by our team we will email you to let you know.

Specialized Epic 8 EVO Expert Mountain Bike 2025

Season:2025

Brand:Specialized

Code:42757105435334

The fastest downcountry bike in the world. Epic 8 EVO is the dressed up, cranked-to-11 expression of the new Epic 8. Spec’d to slay downcountry terrain with its unmatched combo of capability, efficiency, and light weight, Epic 8 EVO’s updated kinematics allow for insanely efficient climbing—while the Ride Dynamics-tuned shock eats up rough terrain on the way down.

If ripping single track at blazing fast speeds and high fiving your friends is your idea of fun, the Epic 8 EVO is the bike for you.

UNMATCHED CAPABILITY:The most capable 120mm bike on the planet, made even more capable. You’ll be blown away by how Epic 8 EVO’s progressive geometry delivers technical terrain capability alongside fast and efficient climbing and acceleration performance. The absurd lateral and torsional rigidity of the chassis translates to some seriously precision handling, too. With a bump up to 130mm of travel up front to eat up the chunk and a slew of trail-friendly specs, Epic 8 EVO feels right at home on the rough stuff.

WHAT BUMP?:Compared to the previous generation, the new Epic 8 EVO absorbs 12% more bump and vibration forces, leaving you less fatigued and more powerful over time. That opens the options for another lap (or 3).

RIDE DYNAMICS TUNED:
The Specialized Ride Dynamics team developed custom valving for Epic 8 EVO’s new shock. The team prescribes the special damping characteristics to holistically elevate the riding experience. By tuning the dampers alongside the chassis’ leverage rates and new kinematics, they’re able to deliver a bike that rides above the sum of its parts.

BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY:By optimizing the kinematics of the suspension, Specialized’s Ride Dynamics team reduced inefficient pedal-induced bobbing by 20%, maintaining active suspension for effective bump force management, to ensure you remain in the most efficient pedaling position. It’s the most efficient pedaling suspension bike they’ve ever tested.

FULLY LOADED:All models now feature SWAT 4.0 to carry all your trail essentials, and an integrated steering stop to prevent the ubiquitous top tube scar the first time you crash and your bars spin.

Features:

  • The most capable 120mm bike on the planet. 12% more bump absorption and 20% less pedal bob
  • Ride Dynamics tuned FOX Float Performance Elite and 130mm FOX 34 Performance Elite fork
  • Roval Control carbon wheels excel everywhere from world cup xc races to your favorite weekend trail
  • SRAM’s legendary Code Bronze Stealth 4-Piston brakes boast major stopping power with a sleek aesthetic
  • Ride in confidence with super rugged and dependable GX Eagle AXS Transmission
  • SWAT 4.0 in down tube to carry trail essentials



Bikes are professionally built by trained technicians to ensure optimal performance, safety, and comfort for each customer. Every component is carefully assembled and adjusted to meet the rider’s specific needs and preferences.

Our convenient man-in-van delivery service brings your professionally built bike straight to your doorstep. A dedicated technician ensures it arrives fully assembled, ready to ride, and adjusted to your specifications.
