Let's start a thread just for discussing all things new DEMO and keep it separate from the 2020 Enduro thread.

First things first. What's up with the reach! Does longer reach matter on a DH bike? The S4 sizing seems downright tiny right? Compared to the EVO models? 425mm on S2!

Also pretty excited about the new suspension kinematics.

"The leverage ratio is much more progressive, the amount of anti-squat has increased by 300%, and the amount of anti-rise increased by 70%."

"The amount of anti-squat is now over 100% in all gear ratios, which should make the bike less likely to bob up and down when a rider is really mashing on the pedals."

If you're getting one, post size and height.

Hey sorry just saw this! Look on Instagram / Facebook for a page called Become Unique, I ordered it from him!

Bike has been super slick so far! So much that I'm taking a hard look at getting a new Enduro to replace my big pedal bike.

Its finally all together. I ended up going with a float x2 custom built by fluid focus. Other than that, I pretty much stuck to my plan. 1 trip to windrock on it, it did a great job. Cheers!

Let me know how you like the X2 in the long run, I was thinking about doing that with mine as well!

You will have to modify the lower linkage a little bit to get it to fit.
