S-works Epic with the (Evo) SID 120mm fork

ross_mac · Jan 25, 2021

Hi all,
I bought an S-works Evo at the end of last year and absolutely loved the bike
Unfortunately it was stolen this past weekend
There are no Large S-works Evo frames available in South Africa currently and I'm told there won't any for quite a while
My local bike shop has recommended that I buy the 2021 Epic frame (i.e. with the brain) and include the ASX dropper post AND the 120mm (manual) SID fork (as per my Evo)

So in effect I'd be building a 2021 Evo with a brain on the suspension (100mm as opposed to 110 on my original Evo) and a 120mm front fork, with a dropper post

Is this a good idea ?? Has anyone done this?

Would appreciate any comments

Thanks, Ross

What about dropping down a level to the pro? I would do that or even the expert before I would convert an Epic into an Evo. The non brain suspension is a huge part of what the Evo is about. A pro with a set of Control SL wheels would be pretty bad ass.
