Im not sure of the prices of the Demo models, but I think the Demo 8 was under $4000, It was like $3500 or something around there. The Demo 8 Pro should be around 4.5k to 4.8k

Thanks for all the great info....you rock....

Abviously the Demo8 Pro model, is the higher end model, however can you tell me if they are offering just the Demo8 frame? How much and which color? Silver or Ano Black?

Thanks again in advance.
 
ahhhhh...is the fox freeride fork on the DEMO8 pro a DC or SC...

and yeh my mates wants a DEMO8 so what colours do they come in...and when will they be available if u know...also how much for just the frame...

This should answer both of your questions! From what I see in the catalog they dont have a Demo 8 frame by itself, but that is just the catalog.

The fork that comes on the Demo 8 Pro is the Fox 40 RC2DH, which is a DC fork!

here are the Demo 8 models:
