The S-Works Demo 11 frameset builds its downhill race platform around HighGear, a system developed with SRAM that physically separates drivetrain forces from suspension movement, so pedaling loads and chain tension stop fighting the suspension's ability to track the ground. Paired with the OBB linkage, HighGear raises ground clearance by 30 millimeters and lets the rear wheel stay fully active through the biggest hits instead of hanging up on impact. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I hit a rock garden at speed expecting the back end to hang up the way it always has on stiffer downhill frames, and it didn't. The wheel kept tracking through hit after hit instead of packing up, so I carried speed through the exit instead of scrubbing it off to recover."Building up the S-Works Demo 11 and want help dialing in the right spec?
