2014 Specialized Demo 8 S-Works Downhill Bike

I have a Specialized Demo 8 S-Works Downhill Bike that is yearning for its next adventure. This bike was originally purchased by a middle-aged executive who sought nothing but the best, but unfortunately never had the nerve or skill to push its limits.

In excellent condition and well-maintained,. With just a few minor dings and scratches acquired throughout its lifetime, this bike stands ready to conquer any trail that dares to challenge it. The 2014 Specialized Demo 8 S-Works is the epitome of high-performance engineering. Crafted with precision, this bike is equipped with top-of-the-line components that will elevate your riding experience to new heights. Its ultra-lightweight carbon fiber frame ensures optimal strength, agility, and responsiveness, while the advanced suspension system, featuring a RockShox Boxxer World Cup fork and a Fox DHX RC4 rear shock, effortlessly absorbs every bump and drop, providing unparalleled control and comfort.

The drivetrain of the Demo 8 S-Works is a symphony of precision and power. With a SRAM X01 DH 7-speed rear derailleur and a SRAM X0-1 DH 7-speed shifter, you can effortlessly shift gears and conquer any terrain with ease. The Avid X0 Trail hydraulic disc brakes provide unparalleled stopping power, ensuring you can navigate even the most challenging descents safely.

As passionate rider I have five high-end bikes and am dedicated to maintaining all my bikes, and this Demo 8 is no exception. It has been stored indoors and serviced regularly, so you can rest assured that you're acquiring a bike that's been pampered from day one. You don’t have bikes the retail for close to $10K and not take care of them. Don't let this opportunity pass you by. Take advantage of the pristine condition and high-performance capabilities of the 2014 Specialized Demo 8 Downhill Bike.
