Derived from the namesake of a famous black graded trail in the local Susice mountains on the edge of the Sumava national park (Nationalpark Bayericher Wald). Inspired by the goddess Epona: Goddess of Horses, Travelers & Dreams. Legend says the Celtic Goddess Epona and her white mare bring dreams to you. She helps manifest the dreams if you allow her to accompany you on your path. It’s a perfect analogy for the slack (64˚ head angle) long reach and 160mm travel on a light-weight, 2.2kg, high modulus carbon frame.
The philosophy behind EPONA is simple yet profound – a strong, stable, lightweight, and straightforward single-pivot enduro frame platform. This philosophy is brought to life through robot-assisted automated fibre placement technology, ensuring a ride that is not just enjoyable but also technically superior. The frame undergoes rigorous quality checks at every step of production, promising a product that meets the highest standards.
