Has anybody used a Dorado Pro on the demo? if so how did you find it I'm toying with swapping out my Fox 40s as with the Doradios being dual air and slightly lighter they should be easier to set up for my youngest son when he inherits my Demo.

That was exactly the move i did on my Demo. Glad I did. I love the Dorado's compliance, ease of setup, increased maneuverability, lighter weight, and less need for maintenance. Can only suggest it.

Are Specialized releasing the new 2015 Demo in aluminum or is it just Carbon/S-Works Carbon for 2015? Trying to figure out when the price on used 13/14 alum will start to drop hard.

at this point the new demo redesign is only coming in carbon, however they will offer the current model in 650b for 2015

dealer site only has the redesign in carbon. They have an sworks, a carbon 1 and a carbon frame only. The rest of the 15's look like the current model but are 650b
