Overview
About this bike
The biggest, rootiest and steepest DH courses just got a whole lot easier now that Specialized's Demo 8 I is on the scene. Its burly aluminum frame boasts Specialized's legendary FSR suspension that smooths all trails, while its low center-of-gravity and low stand-over height help you rail gnarly sections. Keeping you pinned are RockShox's World Cup-proven Boxxer and Fox's Van RC shock that offers sick amounts of perfectly tunable travel to cushion even the biggest, fastest hits. Add in Avid's Elixir discs and fat Specialized tires for max control as well as burly DT Swiss wheels for unheard of speeds out on the race course. Plus, this downhill monster boasts a quick-shifting SRAM drivetrain with a Gamut chainguide so you'll always have the perfect gear.
