isn't the demo 37lbs right out of the box as well? and how is 37lbs not very light? i wouldn't say that it isn't light becuase ONE other bike comes out of the box just as light. many other bikes weigh more, so 37lbs is actually good in my opinion.
Dont get be wrong, 37 pounds is light enough, however i would bragg that my race bike was 37 pounds when you can buy a bike that weighs the same. I suppose it has to do with rider preference, and stuff like that.
Lots of other bikes weigh more than 37 pounds yes, but this year more and more production bikes are getting light.
the 09 demo 8 I is 40lbs flat out of the box, because of the heavy spec tires, i think the 8 II is 38 out of the box, sams race bike is 37, and you cant buy that
workaholic if you were talking to me first off i am not a freerider i pretty much only race. And yes i have seen Sam's ironhorse in person at Mt. 7 Psychosis
yeah but considering the demo is a monster huck proof bike, 37 pounds is mega light, just my opinion though, am i allowed to say i think its prettier and definitely cooler than the trek?
The backdrop of the photo looks like its southern california. i live just south of where this photo might have been taken. i think it's near Cardiff by the sea. Im stoked for Hill this racing season. hes gonna kill it with the demo he's got. i wonder why he left iron horse for specialized. iron horse is more race bikes and specialized has more freeride/slopestyle bikes, Thiough the demo is a race bike as well as a freeride bike. I saw a guy at fontana this past weekend who had a demo with the same paint job. it was hot and i think he won his race class.
Its gonna be pretty exciting watching these guys rippin it up on spesh. people will start to realize that the Demo 8 is a real contender (and always has been) and maybe they'll start selling them in the UK again Get on!!
'The race bike' What they have to share it cuz they only signed for 1 year!?
I'm assuming they'll get a monster green paint job soon... Better yet, a red/black/grey cammo job like the Monster Assault cans, that'd go with more spesh stuff!
that is orgasmic bike gave me a boner when i saw it marron with white so sick and the riders jsut make it even better, shred it up boys i wanna c some vids of you on that beast
