Inside Tech
With each new year, we continue to refine the geometry of the Demo to deliver incredible stability for challenging terrain, ease of maneuverability for quick direction changes and an overall intuitive feel. The relaxed angles of the Demo models combined with the short rear-center, generous top tube and low and central mass all do their part to put the numbers in your favor, even in the most hairball situation.
