The Forbidden Druid XT gulps up big hits like a basking shark, but does this high-pivot rig satiate our hunger for singletrack smash-fests?
Makes the complex look simple.
Needs a better shock tune.

Carbon frame, modern geometry and an innovative linkage. The Forbidden Druid 29-inch trail bike is not an experiment in high-pivot design. It is a statement that the experiments are over and the results are in.

The high single pivot suspension seems to hunker down under braking, helping the bike to stay low and slack even when braking hard on steep chutes.
