I just ordered a large 2012 demo 8 ii. I've sat on mediums and it felt small compaired to my medium 2008 demo frame so I went with the large............I'm 6.1" with a 75 inch reach so I figure the large should work well. Yet I have never seen a large in person or sat on one. How about posting up some pics of the large demo so I can see how awesome it is and be reassured that I made the right choice.

cheers

Every time I've tried to sit on a picture and test the fit, the top edge dug into my butt-crack and it was damned uncomfortable.

I think you're supposed to tape the picture to your current bike.

How many do you need to be sure you got the right size?

I would post one of mine if I could figure out an easy way to get a picture from my iPhone to here. I'm sure there's an easy way that I don't know of.

I think Herndon has a large...

Mine still isn't "finished", but got some photos already

I will get proper photos when I've finished it properly and have some spare time and good light.

ps. these photos were taken on my iPhone, just download the photobucket app for free, and you can upload then copy the img url.

Mmmmmmm.....seems like a lot of work. There needs to be a Ridemonkey app.

Brendan was on a medium until MSA last year, then he went to a large for worlds. This year he was on a large all year as far as i can recall.

I wonder why Brendan even decided to ride a medium in the first place?! For somebody at his size a medium must be damn short?!
I´m 186cm and could ride a medium but if I pedal hard, my knees hit the bars and the top crown.

Btw.: Here is a review of Brendan 2011 race bike: http://www.pinkbike.com/news/Riding-Brendan-Faircloughs-Specialized-Demo-8-2011.html

While not the best pics, here are some of a larger Demo8 with a person! I'm 6'1" with a 6'5" armspan. I definitely like the large, I sat on a medium in the shop and knew instantly it was too small for me.

That looks about right. Do you know your reach in inches?

 

[Ithnu]

Do you mean just wing span? 77"
