Expirience with the Specialized Epic Hardtail Comp

Specialized Epic Hardtail Comp Review
Ludwig Döhl
The Epic Hardtail Comp has one of the lightest carbon frames in the world. The German designer Peter Denk drove the frame weight well below the 1000 gram mark and gave the competition a real headache. When it comes down to handling, Specialized does not compromise. With its balanced handling style, the Specialized Epic Hardtail Comp is ready for the majority of singletrails. In the saddle of the on sporty excursions your bum will have a pleasant ride – and your back too. But let´s not forget: The geometry shows the know-how of the Specialized engineers. For 3500 Euro , other manufacturers deliver geometries with less potential. With 25 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
