The frame is compatible with both coil and air shocks, giving maximum flexibility for suspension tuning.

Details like internal cable routing (with an option for external rear brake routing), a BSA threaded bottom bracket for durability and ease of service, and sealed cartridge bearings throughout make this frameset ready for race-day abuse. With its aggressive design and premium construction, the Demo Race is a proven platform for downhill dominance.

Overall: The 2023 Specialized Demo Race Frameset is a podium-ready option for serious downhill racers. With advanced adjustability, modern suspension, and bombproof construction, it’s built to give riders the edge they need on the toughest courses in the world.
