Forbidden Druid V2 Carbon | Configurator
Art. No°:
A10514
Description
With the Trifecta suspension system and its high-set pivot point, it defies all logic. Thanks to the combination of unique traction and playful handling, even rougher terrain loses its terror. With its balanced geometry, the Druid combines stability and agility in one bike and feels equally at home on the daily after-work ride, the weekend shuttle tour or crossing the Alps during the vacations. By definition, the Druid is a short-stroke trail bike, but in reality it turns out to be a fun, pedal-efficient and mile-eating downhill monster. This bike is in a league of its own and thus does not fit into any pigeonhole.
The FORBIDDEN Druid V2 is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
High Pivot Point
Deviate’s high pivot point, and the careful idler placement, mean the suspension performance on the Highlander is the best of all possible worlds. The rearward axle path lets the bike flow over rough terrain, and as the idler location controls anti-squat, the Highlander has negligible pedal kickback and a deliberate anti-squat curve which eliminates pedal induced suspension bob. The unique kinematics of a high pivot point design maintains chassis stability and geometry under heavy braking, meaning aggressive riding is rewarded.
