Specialized S-Works Demo 8 Team Replica

Specialized S-Works Demo 8 Team Replica (MSRP $0) — The S-Works Demo 8 Team Replica gives riders who want to be like Sam a chance to get one step closer. We have cool pieces, like the Renthal bar and stem and Sam’s SDG I-Fly saddle with extra booty grip. Most companies would stop there but we wanted to get that real factory feel. The RockShox Boxxer WC fork with Black Gold stanchions has been reserved for Black Box riders only, now you can get one. And to top it off, Sam and Troy have been testing the micro-drive for a couple of seasons, something nobody else has: A drivetrain with more clearance on the bashguard with the same top speed capability thanks to a custom 9T cog on a custom DT Swiss rear hub. That rear hub is built into a 135mm rear end: narrower for more clearance, but stronger because the hub is wider. Now that’s a real-deal Team Replica.
