This video contains product placement for Bluegrass & MET. We’ve got two of the latest and fastest downhill bikes, the Specialized Demo Race and the Trek Session nine X01, and today we're putting them head to head to see which is the best downhill bike in 2021.
Modern enduro bikes might be more capable than the downhill bikes of old, but the continued development in downhill has seen them become even more focused.
For pure, no holds barred, adrenalin-fuelled, flat-out action, NOTHING can hold a candle to the mighty downhill bike.
The Trek Session is an iconic gravity bike built for high-speed control and big mountain fun on downhill courses and bike parks. With a new high pivot suspension design, 200mm travel front and back, and new reach sizing, the Session is a truly fast and fun bike.
The Specialized Demo is all about speed. It comes with a mullet set up, 200mm of travel front and back, and a tough aluminium frame. It's been tested by World Champ Loic Bruni, so you can expect great things.
Which bike do you prefer? let us know in the comments!
