Epic Hardtail: Redefined Hardtail Performance

The Epic Hardtail is a revolutionary hardtail mountain bike that combines speed and comfort. Forget the harsh ride typical of hardtails - this bike boasts aggressive geometry, increased tire clearance, and a super compliant frame for confident handling on singletrack.

Despite being the world's lightest production hardtail, the Epic Hardtail prioritizes comfort too. With a dropper post-friendly FACT 11m carbon frame, high-performing RockShox fork, and SRAM drivetrain, this bike excels in both value and performance. Experience a hardtail that rewrites the rules - ridiculously capable, incredibly light, and refreshingly comfortable.
