Specialized Demo 8 II

$1000 USD
Great condition. Specifically selected components for that era. Perfect shuttle or park bike. Has been in storage the past 4 years. Everything fully functional and working properly. Pics are current as of 15 May 2026. Trade or partial trade for size L, or XL trail bike. Prefer a deal closeby PDX or SW Washington. Make an offer! https://www.specialized.com/us/en/demo-8-ii/p/23308?color=36004-23308 https://www.pinkbike.com/news/2011-specialized-demo-8.html https://youtu.be/Kw9-xajB7gU?si=tGNte7fJEudmPNDM To find a modern mountain bike with geometry similar to a 2011 size medium Specialized Demo 8, you need a frame with a ~430mm reach, a ~593mm stack, a super slack ~64-degree headtube angle, and ultra-short ~421mm chainstays. Modern frames are universally longer (for stability), use steeper seat tube angles (for climbing), and feature larger 27.5” or 29” wheels. Because of this, modern downhill bikes will feel much larger, and a modern size small might actually be the closest modern equivalent to your older medium.

this zone has since been harvested, meaning clearcut. Ironically, some brothers later built a descent exactly here and it rips. it was painful to lose this forest but luckily it has been replanted and growing again, and with a nice dh ripper now:)
