Résumé

The Specialized Demo is a downhill bike designed for World Cup racing, featuring a distinctive asymmetrical frame, lower center of gravity, and improved stiffness. It offers a custom TTX shock for superior suspension performance and internal cable routing for durability. While it excels in responsiveness and maneuverability, some riders may find the top tube short for taller frames and the FSR suspension system less optimal on hard hits.

Pros
  • Distinctive asymmetrical frame design

  • Lower center of gravity for improved handling

  • Custom TTX shock with high- and low-speed compression adjustments

  • Internal cable routing for durability

  • Lightweight and responsive

Cons
  • Top tube may be short for taller riders

  • FSR suspension system can hang up on hard hits

  • Expensive, especially custom builds

  • Rear derailleur vulnerable to damage

The new bike was designed from the ground up as a thoroughbred race machine built for the speed and rigors of World Cup Downhill, and it shows with its clean, simple lines, aggressive stance and low center of gravity.

First Ride : Specialized Demo Carbon 27.5"

août 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

Tested: Specialized Demo 8 II

oct. 2012

At its inception in 2004, the Specialized Demo was a 9.5-inch travel, huckster-oriented freeride bike. Today, the name is all that remains. The Demo has steadily evolved from the once overbuilt, ultra burly 48-pound rig into a maneuverable 8-inch travel downhill race bike.
