Expirience with the Specialized Demo Expert

Ludwig Döhl You may still not be able to ride like former world champion Loic Bruni on the Demo Expert , but at least you can feel like it when you are in the lift queue at the bike park. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. On the downhill, however, the Demo Expert is left in the dust by its competitors. A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 25 years warranty Specialized sets the bar high!
