FACT 11m Carbon Frame
The Epic 8 EVO Comp is constructed around a FACT 11m carbon frame, providing a lightweight and responsive foundation for demanding mountain-bike riding.
The carbon chassis combines efficient power transfer with modern full-suspension geometry, making the bike suitable for riders who want climbing efficiency without sacrificing capability on technical descents and rough trails.
Full-Suspension Performance
The Epic 8 EVO Comp combines 130 mm of front travel with 120 mm of rear travel.
This suspension configuration provides additional control across:
- Rocky trails
- Roots and uneven surfaces
- Technical singletrack
- Fast trail descents
- Gravel and dirt routes
- Cross-country terrain
- Steep climbs and descents
The full-suspension system allows both wheels to respond to changing trail surfaces, helping maintain traction and rider control.
130 mm Front Suspension
The 130 mm RockShox front suspension gives the EVO configuration additional front-end capability for technical trail riding.
The increased fork travel helps absorb impacts and maintain front-wheel control when travelling across rough and uneven terrain.
120 mm Rear Suspension
The frame provides 120 mm of rear-wheel travel, balancing trail capability with efficient pedalling performance.
Rear suspension helps the wheel track uneven terrain while reducing impacts transmitted through the bicycle and rider.
SRAM GX Eagle T-Type 12-Speed Drivetrain
The SRAM GX Eagle T-Type 12-speed drivetrain provides a wide gearing range for climbing, trail riding and faster sections.
The 1×12 drivetrain eliminates the need for a front derailleur while providing:
- 12 rear gears
- Wide-range gearing
- Simplified shifting
- Efficient climbing gears
- High gearing for faster trail sections
- Reduced front drivetrain complexity
Electronic Shifting
The GX Eagle T-Type system provides electronic gear shifting, delivering precise drivetrain control without a conventional mechanical derailleur cable.
This modern drivetrain arrangement provides clean cockpit integration and consistent shifting operation across the 12-speed gear range.
SRAM 4-Piston Hydraulic Disc Brakes
The Epic 8 EVO Comp uses SRAM Level Bronze Stealth 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes.
The four-piston calipers provide powerful braking performance suited to technical trails, steep terrain and changing riding conditions.
Hydraulic operation provides controlled brake modulation through the handlebar-mounted brake levers.
29-Inch Wheel Platform
The 29-inch wheel configuration provides efficient rolling performance across trails and uneven terrain.
Large-diameter wheels are particularly useful for maintaining momentum across:
- Rocks
- Roots
- Trail obstacles
- Gravel
- Dirt tracks
- Uneven countryside routes
Tubeless-Ready Wheels
The wheel system supports a tubeless-ready configuration, allowing compatible tubeless tyres, valves and sealant to be installed.
Tubeless MTB setups can provide lower operating pressures and improved trail traction while eliminating conventional inner tubes.
Dropper Seatpost
The included dropper seatpost allows the saddle height to be adjusted during a ride.
A higher saddle position supports efficient pedalling and climbing, while lowering the saddle provides additional rider clearance for descents and technical trail sections.
Trail-Focused EVO Design
The EVO configuration provides a more trail-focused setup with increased front suspension travel and components selected for capable off-road riding.
It is designed for riders who want a mountain bike that combines cross-country efficiency with additional capability for technical trails.
Suitable Riding Applications
The Epic 8 EVO Comp is designed for:
- Cross-country mountain biking
- Technical trail riding
- Singletrack
- Trail climbing
- Fast descents
- Gravel routes
- Countryside riding
- Fitness cycling
- Recreational off-road riding
- Weekend mountain-bike adventures
Complete Bicycle Configuration
The Epic 8 EVO Comp is supplied as a complete mountain bicycle incorporating the major components required for a complete riding platform, including:
- Carbon frame
- Front suspension fork
- Rear shock
- 29-inch front and rear wheels
- Mountain-bike tyres
- SRAM 12-speed drivetrain
- Crankset
- Rear derailleur
- Electronic shifting controls
- Hydraulic disc brakes
- Handlebar
- Stem
- Saddle
- Dropper seatpost
Assembly Information
Final setup should include inspection and adjustment of the handlebars, wheels, suspension pressures and settings, hydraulic brakes, drivetrain, dropper post and tyre pressures.
A complete bicycle safety inspection should be performed before the first ride.
Safety Information
Wear an appropriate cycling helmet and protective equipment for the intended terrain. Before riding, inspect the hydraulic brakes, tyres, wheels, suspension, drivetrain, thru-axles, dropper post and frame fasteners.
Suspension settings and tyre pressures should be adjusted appropriately for rider weight and trail conditions.
