SPECIALIZED DEMO RACE

The Demo Race was born with a precise goal: maximize downhill speed while maintaining maximum control on the world's most technical tracks. Used at the highest levels of the World Cup and developed alongside the best riders, it represents one of the absolute benchmarks in the downhill world.

The M5 alloy frame is designed to offer a specific race geometry and maximum versatility, thanks to the flip chip system that allows mixed wheel configurations: 29" at the front for stability and traction, and 27.5" at the rear for increased maneuverability and agility. A full 29" configuration is also possible to adapt to different riding styles and trails.

The rear suspension kinematics are designed to reduce the impact of obstacles on the wheel, improving tracking and maintaining high speed on the roughest sections. The Öhlins TTX22M.2 shock and Öhlins DH38 M.1 fork with 200 mm of travel offer racing-level sensitivity and stability, ideal for the most extreme lines.

The SRAM X01 DH 7-speed drivetrain guarantees reliability and precision even in the most extreme conditions, while the SRAM Maven Ultimate braking system ensures consistent power and control in every situation.

Used and developed with athletes of the caliber of Loïc Bruni, the Demo Race has proven its potential at the highest levels, quickly becoming one of the reference bikes on the world circuit.
