This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.20" Specialized Pro Roll-X tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Mavic X221, 28-hole/32-hole.

To guarantee the comfiest ride Specialized used Specialized M4 Aluminum material for the frame. Specialized XC LowRise high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Epic to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Aluminum threadless.
