The all-new Epic 8 evolves the formula of fastest through capability, efficiency, and lightweight integration. Modern XC tracks demand more and more capability by the day. Enter Epic 8. Its improved kinematics make it the most efficient pedaling bike we’ve ever tested, while custom valved (and tuned) shocks soak up every bump. It’s a wolf in wolf’s clothing.

If you’re an XC racer or prioritize all-out speed in your ride, the Epic 8 is the bike for you.

UNMATCHED CAPABILITY: The most capable 120mm bike on the planet. You’ll be blown away by how Epic 8’s progressive geometry delivers technical terrain capability alongside fast and efficient climbing and acceleration performance. The absurd lateral and torsional rigidity of the chassis translates to some seriously precision handling, too.

WHAT BUMP?: Compared to the previous generation, the new Epic 8 absorbs 12% more bump and vibration forces than the previous generation, leaving you less fatigued and more powerful over time so you can still push while they suffer.

RIDE DYNAMICS TUNED: The Specialized Ride Dynamics team developed custom valving for Epic 8’s new shock. Our unique Ride Dynamics-prescribed damping characteristics holistically elevate the riding experience. By tuning the dampers alongside the chassis’ leverage rates and new kinematics, we’re able to deliver a bike that rides beyond the sum of its parts.

BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY: By optimizing the kinematics of the suspension, Specialized’s Ride Dynamics team reduced inefficient pedal-induced bobbing by 20%, while maintaining active suspension for effective bump force management, to ensure you remain in the most efficient pedaling position. It’s the most efficient pedaling suspension bike we’ve ever tested.

MORE WITH LESS: With the Epic 8, we didn’t spend a single extra gram to get mega capability from the frame. All models now feature SWAT 4.0 to carry all your trail essentials, and an integrated steering stop to prevent the ubiquitous top tube scar the first time you crash and your bars spin. In fact, the new S-Works Epic 8 frameset has even lost weight (76 grams to be exact) while gaining these new additions.

ROCKSHOX FLIGHT ATTENDANT: Free your mind to focus on fast in the heat of the moment. Specialized Ride Dynamics-Tuned RockShox Flight Attendant (on S-Works models) leverages SRAM AXS Wireless technology to collect real-time data from you and the terrain to determine optimal compression settings to deliver an unmatched experience for the rider.

Pro-Level Speed & Precision in One Mouse 🎮⚡
This mouse is absolutely amazing. The Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE is incredibly lightweight, fast, and precise. You can feel the difference immediately, especially in competitive games where every movement matters. The clicks are super responsive and customizable, which gives you better control during gameplay. The sensor is extremely accurate with no lag at all. Battery life is excellent, and the USB-C charging makes it very convenient. Overall, it feels like a premium, pro-level gaming mouse. If you’re serious about performance, this is definitely worth it.

Super lightweight and smooth for gaming
Really enjoying this mouse so far. It feels super light in the hand and moves very smoothly while gaming. The clicks are responsive, and the wireless connection has been stable with no lag issues. Battery life also seems pretty good. The shape is comfortable even during longer sessions. The only thing I would improve is adding a little more grip texture on the sides, but overall it’s an excellent gaming mouse.

Really great mouse, but terrible skates.
I absolutely loves this mouse. I usually have stuck to only using razer mice in the past. However I made the switch to this one and its honestly so great. I only really have one complaint and the rest is amazing. Pros: Battery life is honestly amazing. Its really quiet because it no longer clicks, its just haptic feedback like the ps5 controller. You can adjust when it actually clicks which is super cool just like a Hall effect keyboard, because it's the same tech. Mouse just feels great and the included grips are nice, but they do take some getting used to as they aren't what I was expecting. However I have come to like them. Cons: It's vey expensive for a mouse, there's a lot of competition and a variety of mice esp way cheaper. The stock skates are absolutely terrible, that's why I changed them jade's and now its perfect. No complaints after that. However for a mouse this expensive, I was hoping for better skates. I also don't really like the scroll wheel, to be fair I do come from razer mice so that might be why I hate it. It also takes some getting used to as the mouse is front heavy because of the switches on the mouse, but I bet you can fix that if you have a powerplay to balance it out. However I have this mouse for 2 months now and I absolutely love it and I wouldn't switch for another. The only thing I would change if you were buying this mouse today is to also order skates so you can replace them. Would be a 5/5 if it weren't for the terrible skates. TL;DR: Great mouse if purchasing, buy skates as well.

Huge Upgrade!!!
After just a week of using this mouse, I can confidently say this is the best peripheral purchase I have ever made. I initially wasn't in the market for a new mouse, until my scroll wheel broke on my razer mouse. I decided to just pull the trigger on the X2 Superstrike instead of purchasing another razer mouse. The mouse material feel is excellent, and the wheel is great as well. I've also seen some reviews disliking the skates on the X2 Superstrike, however I personally found them to be great. The haptic feedback mouse click seemed a bit gimmicky before I actually used it. Right off the bat, the mouse click feels incredibly responsive and similar to that of any high quality mouse. You get enough feedback and it doesn't feel that much different from a regular mouse click. But, you also have optionality to adjust a ton of settings, like accuation, feedback strength, etc. For gaming, with the right settings, this genuinely feels amazing, and that's before the performance upgrade. As many other reviewers have noted, it noticeably decreases latency on top of all of this. Another huge perk with this mouse I found, was that it's almost dead silent as well. No more loud clicking! My only critique with the mouse are the side buttons and the size. The side buttons are the only part of the mouse that feel "cheap". Because I use the side buttons often in competitive games, I notice it a lot more than probably most people would. I also have large hands, and this is the smallest mouse I have used. I got used to it pretty quick, but the mouse is on the smaller side. Nonetheless, if you are looking to upgrade your mouse and have the money, I would 100% recommend. This feels as impactful as going from a 60hz monitor to a 144hz+.

Works so well I got a second one!
Size: One Size
I rarely write reviews but I came here specifically because this mouse is great! As someone who is technologically challenged I appreciate everything about it-- I bought one of these 5 years ago and use it heavily everyday, it still works like a dream which is why I bought a second one to use on a separate computer. Started using this new one and it was just as easy to set up as the first one, just plugged in the USB piece and was able to use it immediately, no further setup required. As a bonus, it already came with batteries like the last one did (by the way I never turn off my 5 year old mouse and the same batteries are still in it working great). Smooth operation, ergonomic, easy to use, and portable!
