MX Geometry29" GeometrySpecifications

What happens when you ride a bike equipped with the industry’s most refined high pivot design and 205mm of rear wheel travel? You remain composed and comfortable across the knottiest root balls and rowdiest rock gardens. You develop a new penchant for committing to corner speeds and line choices that old-you would never dream of. You go in over your head and get out with a shit-eating grin. You get a DH bike with zero compromises. You get Supernought!

Straight from the World Cup pits. By using modular dropouts Forbidden has added another level of performance tuning to your ride. Dropouts are easily swapped for different wheel sizes as well as meaningful geometry and weight bias adjustments. MX or 29 wheel configuration and 0, +10mm, and -10mm adjustments are all made via modular dropouts. Allowing riders to customize weight bias and handling to suit riding style or terrain type. 200mm direct brake mount included as standard.

The V2 Trifecta Platform allows to fine-tune kinematics for each bike. Forbidden's Factory Team wanted more sensitivity and grip. So they delivered a DH-optimized leverage curve and braking characteristics. The result is a bike that begs you to stay off the brakes a little longer and remains completely composed when the anchors are dropped.

• Fully custom frame protection system to stop the bashy bits from bashing, keep the noisy parts quiet and the messy spots free from crud
