Résumé
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.
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
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
A silent, agile, terrain-eating machine that covers ground with a serious amount of pace
BikeRadarThe momentum it carries is breathtaking
BikeRadarThe 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.
Mountain FlyerIt’s a really lively bike, but when you get it in the bumps it eats them up really good

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.

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

août 2014
The Specialized Demo 8 has been an eye-turner since the original with its distinctive twin seat stays and spider web shock enclosure. The bike has gone through several redesigns since then, but none as transformative as what you see here.

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.
