Ok so basiclly its for my friend that just started DH/Freeride.
He already done some and he was pretty good.

So for this year he want to buy his own bike, so I told him , the easiest way to get a decent bike for a moderate price is to go used for sure.

Now he's facing 2 decent bike for almost the same price

So to make a long story short, which one would you chose.

Specialized Demo 7 2007 (add : https://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/901030/)
Overall spec (none mentioned in the add)
888 rc3 2008 ( as I see)
fox Dhx 3.0~4.0
a crank...
Avid juicy three 8''
Some sram shifting
Mavic wheel ( 3xx)

Devinci 8flat8 2006 (painted wilson 3, paint look amazing)
(add: http://montreal.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-bikes-mountain-Devinci-8Flat8-2006-W0QQAdIdZ325887190)
888 vf2 2006 (as i see)
fox dhx 5.0 pro pedal
race face crank (look better then the one on the demo)
the old hayes brakes 8'' (2006 probably) (my friend have a pair of avid juicy 3 already)
single track front
mavic rear
sram x-9

The Demo is a bit more pricy ( say 50~100$ more)

So what you chose
*If the spec of those bike I have linked are wrong, mention it , I will adjust

No. The bizarre and cryptic subject line does not help.
