oh shitttttttttttttttttttt..
so what do people think? i reckon the demo will sell like mad this year! the only reason so many sundays sold was because of hill
is it just me or does that look like a short demo, maybe its just me. oh well. still looks bloody fast.
I like the sunday was a way better bike for sam. It will be interesting to see how well he does next year with specialized.

It was a hard day for photogs... the weather was crap and everything that was taken came out like this... the only way to have more green would be to photoshop it in.
hot info, today on the new bike and also directly online, looks unusual and uncommon to see him riding his demo...

NO, im pretty sure the bike is way lighter then a regular specialized demo, he's one of the top pros. light components and theres going to be lots of mods to the frame that you can't always see. but im stoked to see him on a specialized!!!
They only way 43 lbs with stock parts on. I only have a few lighter parts than stock on my demo and its already just under 40 lbs
disagree, he's worthy of a better manufacturer than ironhorse. he's gonna do wonders for specialized and they are gonna do wonders for him. i'm stoked to see him ride for a quality brand.
Only if u knew about the manufacturing process of the Sunday, hell if iron horse is associated with kmart bikes, doesnt matter what matters was the fact the bike was design by Dave Weagle, the only man to deliver an alternative to the horst link to which special still uses, which they bought off of Amp Research, Dave Weagle is a hero have to credit him to the creation of the only other suspension designs that dont have brake jack without the use of a floating brake

It would look way better painted Monster Green with some rainbox strips mixed in.
With regards to weigth, I am sure, as on his Iron Horse, he has a few special goodies to bring the weight down around the mid 30's (36 - 37lbs).
Only time will tell.

have you noticed that since he left iron horse their bieks have got worse, they should have just kept the bikes like they were before, they were gnarly, the new world cup one is nice but the others are poor compared to last years and the year before
they got worse because Dave Weagle (of DW Linkage fame) decided not to relicense the DW to IronHorse for the '10 line ups. i think that was a contributing factor for Sam leaving IH as well
yea good point i only found that out after i wrote the comment i still like the ih bikes but they were soo much better before
i wonder how much money specialized paid to bring him over or if his contract ran out with iron horse, anyways if this is his new bike expect a price hike from specialized

yea i know dude but most of these are darkened or watermarked for a reason. They're less appealing for people to rip them to other sites/pages.
