IN STORE PICK-UP ONLY

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.

  • The most capable 120mm bike on the planet. 12% more bump absorption and 20% less pedal bob
  • SRAM Motive Bronze 4-Piston brakes feature trail-ready stopping power in a race-ready system

Best that I have found for dry mouth.
These are the best for dry mouth at night. They mostly stay stuck. I say mostly because I have had a few come apart. I think that was my fault.

Business Breakthroughs Await: Unleash the Potential of "Who Not How" in Your Ventures!
Format: Kindle
The impact on business success is exponential for those implementing Dan Sullivan’s “Who Not How” model. The strategic framework presented in the book has fundamentally altered the way entrepreneurs navigate the challenges of running and growing their businesses. The model is a game-changer, shifting from the traditional “how” to the more effective “who.” Below are a few key points: Define Your Unique Value Proposition (UVP): The model encourages businesses to articulate what sets them apart, fostering a deep understanding and effective communication of their unique value. It provides guidance on identifying specific topics and themes that resonate most with the target customers, resulting in a more targeted and impactful approach. Identify Key Tasks: The book prompts entrepreneurs to compile a comprehensive list of tasks crucial for business operations and growth, including marketing, branding, and sales. Categorize Tasks: Categorizing tasks into areas of expertise, such as marketing, operations, content creation, and sales, clarifies resource allocation for optimal results. Prioritize High-Impact Tasks: The model assists in identifying tasks with the highest impact on business growth, such as creating compelling content, building a robust online presence, and securing motivated customers. Identify “Whos”: The transformative recommendation to identify experts or partners for specific tasks has proven beneficial. Hiring specialized individuals, like a virtual assistant for administrative tasks, a marketing expert for online promotion, and dedicated customer service, enhances efficiency and customer satisfaction. Build a Team of Experts: Assembling a team of individuals with complementary skills is a game-changer. Leveraging the efficiency of freelancers, agencies, and part-time professionals fulfills specific roles, contributing to overall business growth. Dan Sullivan’s “Who Not How” model is more than just a book; it’s a strategic guide empowering businesses to leverage expertise and build a team capable of achieving remarkable results. The book is highly recommended to fellow entrepreneurs seeking exponential business growth. ~ Linsey Mills

Unlocking Success Beyond Self-Reliance
Format: Kindle
Dan Sullivan’s book “Who Not How” is a transformative guide that redefines the way we approach challenges and goals. Rather than asking “How can I do this?” the book challenges readers to ask, “Who can help me achieve this?” This shift in thinking opens up the potential for exponential growth, efficiency, and success. Sullivan’s core premise is that the path to achieving your ambitions isn’t about taking on everything yourself but rather identifying the right people who can help you get there. This insight is particularly valuable for those who find themselves caught in a cycle of overwork and frustration when trying to handle every aspect of their projects or responsibilities alone. Although, the main idea of the book is inspiring and powerful, the book does come across as promotion of Sullivan’s Strategic Coach program, which might be off-putting for some readers. While the book is relatively short, it still feels somewhat wordy and could have been more concise. Many chapters follow a predictable pattern: a story about Mr. X who faced a challenge, found a “Who,” achieved success, and then helped the “Who” in return. This repetition can make the narrative feel formulaic at times. Additionally, there are numerous one-liners throughout the book that seem disconnected from the surrounding text. While these sentences are mostly quotable, their placement can feel abrupt and unrelated to the passage before or after. Despite these critiques, the book is filled with examples that showcase how leaders and entrepreneurs have leveraged this mindset. By engaging with the right “Who,” you not only save time and energy but also unlock a level of creativity and collaboration that propels your goals further than you could imagine on your own. For readers seeking to achieve more while doing less, Sullivan’s book is a great read. It offers a liberating perspective that not only boosts productivity but also enhances personal fulfillment by allowing you to focus on what you do best and rely on others for the rest. I would rate it 4/5 for its mostly thought-provoking content.
