Jan 5, 2020Specialized Demo 8 custom build 27.5 front (MULLET)
$1550 GBPFor sale is my beloved Demo,
Due to health issues I am having to sell my bike.
I only have a photo from last year currently - it has been ridden a couple of times since but have a new phone so don’t have anything more recent at the moment.
Spec is as follows -
Demo 8 frame 2014
Rockshox Boxxer Team 27.5 2017 which makes the head angle 62*
Fox Float x2 2017 only ridden a few times or could provide CCDB coil to reduce price by £200
Stock headset
Thomson Elite post
Stans Flow Ex rims with Nukeproof hubs (built by myself and have stayed true since day one apart from the rear being a bit out of true)
Shimano Zee brakes 200/180
Sram x9 rear mech
Sram red cassette
Shimano chain (worn)
E13 chainguide
Truvativ descendant cranks
Bontrager DH tyres set up tubeless
Pro Atherton handlebar, Raceface stealth stem, deathgrips
Sdg saddle
This is probably around a £4.5k build and was my dream bike.
I was a very experienced bicycle mechanic up until 3 years ago so the bike has been well looked after, only ridden a handleful of times a year as I also have a trail bike and since becoming self employed 3 years ago it has hardly had any use.
I absolutely love this bike and with the float x2 shock and 27.5 wheel up front, it is a demon and absolutely brings a smile to my face.
It is not available for immediate sale as I have to replace the rear brake lever and will service and clean before it’s sent and will do this within a few days of serious interest.

Stan's Ridiculously Light XC Wheelset and New Wide Rim - Eurobike 2017
That's an alloy rim - everyone knows alloy doesn't bounce back, they're referring to their carbon rim

Shimano Launches Pro Bike Components Koryak Dropper Seatpost - First Look
150 is pretty necessary if you actually do sick size jumps. Can't be sending 20-35ft doubles with a seat near your arse.

Stemtee-Nukeproof's Custom DH Shock
Dh turns even more enduro by using XC technology. Lock out is basically just like sticking slicks on a mountain bike...
