WARNING! Specialized frames are compatible ONLY with forks
that have a specific range of travel. Use of different styled forks or
forks with longer travel may result in catastrophic failure of the
frame which may result in serious personal injury or death.
WARNING! While the Epic WC frame is generally compatible with
tires up to 29 x 2.4, tire dimensions can vary depending on the
manufacturer, and not all forks are designed to accept a larger
tire. Always check with the fork manufacturer regarding required
clearances.
Tire sizes vary significantly from brand to brand. CEN standards
require a minimum of 6 mm of clearance between the frame/fork
and the tires. When choosing a wheel and tire combo, factor in
enough clearance for the conditions, setup, and wheel flex.
CAUTION: Certain chainrings may not have adequate clearance
with the chainstay. Verify spacing and chainline before using it.
