A bike with lower gearing will be easier to ride up steep hills, while a higher top end means it will pedal faster down hills.

Zusammenfassung

The Specialized Demo is a high-performance downhill bike praised for its silent, agile terrain handling and breathtaking momentum. Its asymmetric frame design and Öhlins TTX shock contribute to a low center of gravity and effortless efficiency in steep terrain. While the bike excels in suspension performance and handling, some reviews note the fork could be better matched to the bike's caliber, and the rear tire lacks bite in wet conditions.

Pros
  • Silent and fast terrain handling

  • Breathtaking momentum and balance

  • Confidence-inspiring suspension and low bottom bracket

  • Nimble feel for carving and pushing for trickier lines

  • Effortless efficiency in steep, demanding terrain

Cons
  • RockShox Boxxer Team fork could be better for the price and calibre

  • Semi-slick Specialized Slaughter DH rear tyre lacks bite under braking in wet conditions

  • Fork felt too progressive and harsh, not matching the rear shock's performance

  • Pricing is described as 'really expensive' for the S-WORKS version

The momentum it carries is breathtaking
BikeRadar logoBikeRadar
The new Demo Carbon is definitely a race bike, as the slack headtube begs to turn into the steepest chutes available, and the tight, low rear end easily whips through tight switchbacks and rock gardens with ease.

It’s a really lively bike, but when you get it in the bumps it eats them up really good

Specialized S-Works Demo 8 first ride review

Sept. 2016 · Rob Weaver

The Demo handles the rough stuff without hesitation too, though we can’t help think about just how good it could be with an even better fork bolted in out front.

First Ride : Specialized Demo Carbon 27.5"

Aug. 2014 · Ian Collins

During Crankworx in Whistler, I had the fortunate opportunity to take a new Specialized Demo Carbon 27.5” bike out for a day and gather some thoughts on the bold, cutting edge new design. While one day certainly isn’t enough time to do a full length review on a complete DH bike, if there was any single place to ride for JUST one day and gather as much feedback as possible it would be in Whistler. demo test session from MTB MAG on Vimeo. At 6′ tall, I was pretty dead set on riding a long. Why did I call it
