Samenvatting
The Forbidden Dreadnought is a standout enduro bike with a unique high-pivot suspension design that excels in rough, fast terrain, offering stability and confidence akin to a downhill sled. It's praised for its superb suspension performance, aggressive geometry, and size-specific tuning, making it a favorite for descending. However, its weight and demanding nature on climbs, along with some quirks like a noisy idler and long chainstays, may not suit all riders.

Would you own the most capable trail bike ever made, even if it meant you could never do a manual again?
BetaIn a world of copycat designs the Forbidden Dreadnought stands out as a genuine trailblazer.
MBRThe Dreadnought is a hard one to place. It's a 150mm-travel bike with an idler pulley and dual-crown compatibility.Pinkbike

Forbidden Bike Co. offers you the chance to look like a factory pro with the limited-run Dreadnought LTD Team Edition.

Forbidden now has a big gun but who needs the Forbidden Dreadnought XT when the Druid is already billed as capable? In short... everyone. Let me explain.
Unique ride quality. Great sizing with balanced weight distribution across all sizes. Buttery-smooth suspension with good range of adjustment and plenty of support for smashing bigger hits. Steep seat angle means you simply sit down and spin and the Dreadnought climbs with the best of them. It’s better than the Druid.
Needs a high-rise bar. End-stroke progression makes it harder to get full travel, so maybe a coil shock would make this bike better still. Idler is noisy when it’s muddy. Longer chainstay and rearward axle path means you have to put more effort into lifting the front end.

The Dreadnought has the manners of a bigger bike, but its 151mm of travel doesn't quite deliver the same performance as longer travel options.
Superb suspension tracking over small and mid-sized bumps.
Balanced weight distribution provides excellent cornering composure in flat, loose turns.
Stable and confident on fast, bike-park style terrain.
Comfortable and easy to manage traction on technical climbs.
The XL's long chainstay (which grows through the travel) makes manuals, hops, or steep and tight trails trickier.
Though supple for the travel, suspension isn't as forgiving as longer travel bikes in the same intended use category.
Though idler drag is minimal, it's not the sprightliest climber even compared to longer travel bikes.
Our bike had a shock bolt repeatedly work loose and two hard-to-explain snapped derailleurs.

We held on to the Forbidden Dreadnought for nearly two months. Was that long enough to know if we could hold on to it forever?

A global pandemic can't keep the new Forbidden Dreadnought chained down. Owen Pemberton shares some of the challenges during the bike's development.
Unique size-specific geometry with varying rear-centre lengths and steeper seat tube angles per frame size
Frame built to withstand DH bike abuse
Compatible with dual crown forks
Rearward axle path improves chassis stability and keeps rider weight centralized
Offers full 29 or mixed wheel setups via Ziggy Link
High-pivot design with idler for anti-squat tuning
Limited initial batch of 100 frame kits only
Complete bikes were delayed due to supply chain issues
Frame-only options came with coil shocks only (no air initially)
Supply chain forced early adoption of boutique shock brands (EXT, Push)
