Product Description
The all new Demo 29er sees a big design overhaul to provide a plush ride that keeps you firmly in control-even on the most technical of downhills. When the Demo 29 was introduced to the World Cup stage, it crushed the competition on its debut and many more times since. Specialized have focused a lot on the rear shock while redesigning the new Demo, the result being a bike that is incredibly smooth and incredibly fast without sacrificing on control. In the downhill world, low is fast. The lower your centre of gravity the more stable you are, and the more stable you are the faster you can go. The Demo 29 sees a redesigned linkage that places the shock mass as low and forward as possible to this end. Confidence inspiring. Thanks to a more rearward axle path, the Demo 29 doesn't suffer from rear wheel hang-up on square edged hits so your body doesn't have to take the hit. Specialized also introduced the perfect amount of ant-rise to the Demo; there is nothing worse than slaming your brakes on and your rear wheel losing traction thanks to forward weight shift, but with the Demo you stay stable and in control at all times. The Demo's geometry was designed to be fast and playful. 350mm of BB clearance provides a good balance of cornering control and ground clearance, whilst the the shorter head tube keeps the bars in the sweetspot. The Demo Race is the top of the range model thanks to its awesome spec: DH specific 7 Speed X0 DH drivetrain provides all the performance of SRAM's X0 drivetrain without the unecessary gears. SRAM Code RSC 4-Piston hydraulic disc brakes provide a confident ride in all conditions thanks to the peerless stopping power and modulation they provide. The Demo Race also boasts top of the range Custom Ohlins dual suspension to keep you stable and firmly in control.
