S-Works Mountain

World’s Fastest S-Works was created over 20 years ago to specifically meet the needs of the world’s most demanding riders. The goals of lighter, stiffer and faster are pursued without regard to effort, cost or tradition. The S-Works designation is rooted in the exclusive factory “works” motocross bikes used by pro racers, and our S-Works title is reserved for elite bikes and equipment representing the most revolutionary and innovative designs. S-Works products are created by a team of industry-leading engineers, fabricators, designers, product managers and professional athletes to give you the ultimate ride. S-Works bikes and equipment have achieved world-class results since its inception in 1991. Our winning tradition spans decades, and our racers: Kulhavy, Sauser, Rusch, Brosnan, Hill, Alvarez, Stander, Stolz and Prokop join the company of past champions: Overend, Fullana, and Fürst—as elite athletes who’ve raced to victory at the highest level. 2 FSR Suspension 4 29 Technology 6 Stumpjumper FSR 10 Enduro 14 Epic 18 Stumpjumper HT 22 Shoes 24 Helmets 26 Tires 28 Mountain Models/Colors 32 Mountain Specs 35 Mountain Geos

With nearly 180 years of combined suspension development, engineering and design experience, the Performance Mountain Bike Team works hard to give you the lightest, fastest, smoothest and most fun bikes in the sport. With FACT carbon S-Works frames as the perfect platform to build from, they dial in the World-Championship-proven performance of our FSR suspension and Brain shock technology to give you more control, comfort and efficiency. When it comes to making S-Works mountain bikes the fastest climbing and best handling machines on the trail, the Performance Mountain guys are all business

FSR Suspension

FULLY ACTIVE, FULLY INDEPENDENT We blazed the trail in fully active, fully independent suspension, and have been refining it ever since. FSR technology delivers more comfort, control and efficiency than any other suspension design, by effectively isolating chain and brake loads. Through our nearly 20-year progression of FSR we’ve been able to tune the ride to match the experience. The result: The same FSR technology that Jaroslav Kulhavy used racing the S-Works Epic to the 2011 XC World Championship—Troy Brosnan used aboard his Demo 8 to capture another Downhill World title.

Comfort, Control, Efficiency

LOCATION. LOCATION. LOCATION. The heart of our FSR suspension is the two chainstay FSR pivots. By modifying the FSR pivot location we can tune the bike’s desired spring rate and performance to match the desired experience.

Demo 8

Active suspension is free to absorb trail-induced forces so the rider’s body doesn’t have to. Maximum traction means greater control The FSR design is independent of chain and brake forces, therefore it’s free to compress and rebound over terrain features whether you’re pedaling or not; allowing the tires to maintain contact with the ground a greater percentage of the time. Maximizing each rotation of the cranks is the key to riding efficiently Chain torque won’t engage the suspension, so as a rider puts effort into the pedals the bike will propel forward, not up and down.

Integrated innovation with the focus on complete performance makes our 29ers the lightest, fastest and most efficient bikes in the sport. 1. Most-Responsive Handling

We keep our chainstays short on all our 29er frames, so the rear triangle remains stiff for a responsive ride. We also use shorter, tapered head tubes to keep the front end low for agile and controlled handling.

2. Lightest 29ers From FACT carbon fiber frames to tubeless-ready Roval wheelsets, we shave weight to improve the riding experience.

3. Best Power Transfer Our 29ers offer unmatched bottom bracket and torsional rigidity to translate every watt into forward motion.

4. Optimized Wheelsets

Specialized 29 Technology

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve developed 29er XC Trailspecific wheelsets with more spokes and a wider rim to meet the demands of each riding experience.

Jaroslav Kulhavy and his Epic 29 made history by winning the first ever World Cup crosscountry race and XC World Championship on a full-suspension 29er.

Stumpjumper FSR

Sure, 30 years ago the original Stumpjumper was groundbreaking, but who could have imagined a bike with over five inches of travel, AUTOSAG shock tuning and lightweight carbon wheels? The S-Works Stumpjumper FSR 29 is a superefficient climber and is downright the best-handling trail bike in the sport, but don’t take our word for it. Germany’s Bike magazine tested the 2012 S-Works Stumpjumper FSR 29 and declared it the “World’s Best Mountain Bike”

“The Stumpjumper FSR is synonymous with adventure, performance, and innovation. With the all-new S-Works model we’ve applied the Stumpjumper’s versatility, premium performance and new technologies to how you want to ride. Available in both 26 and 29-inch wheel sizes, our Stumpjumper FSR is loaded with new features to help you ride faster, smoother and just have more fun than ever before. A couple of my favorite new features are the AUTOSAG suspension that gets me ready to ride with a push of a button, and how the Command Post BlackLite dropper seatpost always puts me in the perfect riding position both climbing and descending. Our new Stumpy fires me up every time I ride, and I know you’ll feel the same way when you hit the trail on yours.” - David Allen, Performance Mountain Senior Design Engineer

Enduro With 160mm of travel and unprecedented stiffness of the X-Wing carbon frame, the S-Works Enduro rockets uphill like a cross-country weapon and bombs technical descents with plush precision

“The early Enduros really defined the All-Mountain category, which is the type of riding that I personally do most of the time. I am not racing to get anywhere fast, and I love to stop and session jumps, drops or tech sections. It’s funny to look back and think about how young the entire sport was when it was first released. The 2002 Enduro was the bike I took on my first visit to The Shore and Whistler. We’ve come a long way; new technology has allowed us to push the envelope and produce bikes that are simultaneously great climbers and incredibly fun and capable descending bikes. Specialized has had a strong hand in shaping the progression of what has become the versatile All-Mountain category.” —Jason Chamberlain, Specialized Senior FSR Engineer

“I’ve been fortunate to see the evolution of the Epic every step of the way. In 1997, I was doing some World Cup and NORBA National races on our Max Backbone, four-bar linkage Stumpjumper, but, to be to be competitive I had to pump up the shock to the point where it was not responsive in rough terrain. With that setup, myself and other team riders felt full-suspension bikes were too inefficient for elite-level XC racing. Our Director of Suspension Technology Mike McAndrews came up with the idea of incorporating position sensitive inertia valve damping to make a full-suspension bike pedal like a hardtail, but utilize full travel on the descents, and the Epic and its Brain shock were born. Since its launch in 2003, we’ve been making the Epic lighter and improving the performance of the Brain shock. We’ve added Brain Fade adjustment for fine-tuning, increased the travel to 100mm, made the frame stiffer, lighter and perfected the geos for both 26-inch and 29er versions. Over the years, our cross-country team has continued to push the product managers and engineers to improve on what was already the fastest XC full-suspension bike in existence. The Epic has three XC World Championships, and is still the only full-suspension bike to ever take that honor; and, in 2011 also became the first 29er to ever win an XC World Championship.” — Racing legend and World Champion, Ned Overend.

“Our goal for the Dissident was to make a helmet 100 grams lighter and more ventilated than the current leading model, plus exceed all of the consumer safety standards associated with downhill bicycle helmets. I was responsible for the shape of the helmet as well as how it fit rider’s heads including selection of fabrics and densities of comfort padding foam. I also did the majority of the product development working closely with our carbon fiber facility to make sure the project came together as we’d envisioned it. We designed the Dissident to be compatible with neck braces and the Shock Doctor Eject helmet removal system that is currently mandatory in AMA Supercross and Motocross. The Dissident is more compatible than any other helmet on the market, complete with routing for the inflation tubing. “While we were developing the helmet, we also wanted to make it as safe as possible for when the helmet needed to be removed by medical personnel. To accomplish this, we developed a proprietary snap-in/slide out system to allow the cheekpads to be removed while the rider is still wearing it. Our system works very well, and doesn’t have the weight and cost penalties of using other methods to keep pads in place. In addition to premium safety and comfort, to make the Dissident the total package of performance and style we incorporated the guidance of Senior Graphic Designer, Alain Lanusse, to oversee the attention to the aesthetic design. Our Dissident will turn as many heads with its style as it protects with cutting-edge safety features.” —Bob Lakes, Helmet Developer

Dissident The most advanced downhill mountain bike helmet ever designed 4th Dimension cooling : Strategically placed vents and channels provide maximum airflow over the head to cool the rider Carbon Matrix shell : The sub-1000g helmet is ultra-lightweight to reduce the fatigue of all-day riding and racing EJECT™ system compatible : A safety standard incorporated from motorsports helmets designed to protect a fallen rider’s neck and spine during helmet removal Speaker compatible : Enjoy your favorite music while ripping up the bike park with integrated cable routing for headphones and ear buds

“The new Ground Control needed to be a masterpiece—not just because of the heritage of the name, but because we wanted the Ground Control to have no weaknesses and perform superior in all conditions. Rather than going for the best compromise in all conditions, as is often done, we went for improvements in all discipline: better traction, lower rolling resistance, less weight, and longer wear. In tire tread design the tine details have a big impact on performance. With the might of our engineering powerhouse we were able to apply the most modern 3D modeling and simulation methods to the Ground Control tread. We didn’t just look at the bold shapes, but went into every facet and angle of each knob to find areas for improvement. The result of our effort is a stable, adaptive, fast-trolling and extremely grippy tire in a long-lasting package.” –Wolf VormWalde, Specialized Senior Tire Product Manager

S-Works Ground Control Bridging the gap between speed and traction by incorporating technologies never before seen in bicycle tire design Adaptive Tread Technology : Provides extra grip by increasing surface area and interlocking biting edges Designed for versatility : Aggressive, yet fast-rolling knobs to help maintain momentum GRID UST and 2Bliss versions : Experience less flat tires and lighter weight by going tubeless Experience-specific sizes : Made for both 26-inch and 29ers, and different widths for all riding styles
