TUNING DRIVING DYNAMICS TUNING DRIVING DYNAMICS The Specialized Ride Dynamics team developed custom tuning for the Epic 8's new shock absorber. Our unique damping characteristics, prescribed by Ride Dynamics, holistically elevate the riding experience. By tuning the shocks along with the chassis leverage rates and new kinematics, we are able to deliver a bike that goes beyond the sum of its parts. BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY By optimizing suspension kinematics, Specialized's Ride Dynamics team reduced inefficient pedal-induced roll by 20% while maintaining active suspension for effective bump force management, ensuring you stay in the most efficient pedaling position. It's the most efficient pedal-powered suspension bike we've tested. MÁS.
