Druid

Druid is the modern wolf in sheep’s clothing. Its high pivot Trifecta suspension platform defies logic. Simultaneously generating predictable traction and playful pop while offering an otherworldly ability to devour chunky terrain. With geometry that effortlessly balances stability and agility, the Druid is a trail bike through and through. This bike is equally at home hammering out trail rides after work, ripping weekend shuttle laps, and crushing epic alpine traverses. This humble (on paper) trail bike boasts on-trail characteristics that don’t just punch above their class, they defy classification altogether. A bike that delivers pedal-all-day efficiency when you want it and tech-descent-tackling confidence when you need it. A short travel trail bike by definition but a kilometer-crushing, chunder-devouring, fun machine by any other description.

Shop Thoughts

The short travel Druid packs a punch. With a ground hugging rear end, you will find yourself climbing technical terrain with ease. The suspension is active and provides a very plush bottomless feel for only having 130mm of travel. If you haven't tried a high pivot you are missing out! Forbidden is notorious for spec'ing their bikes with good stopping power and good suspension.
