Forbidden Dreadnought GX RS S
For 2024 the Forbidden Dreadnought gets a V2 update, much like its Druid bredren. With a revamped suspension system and new build kits, it’s a complete refresh for this big hitting high-pivot monster!
All of the Dreadnought bikes feature Sram brakes and T-Type drivetrain, with a range of Rockshox suspension packages to complete the build. This version is the GX RS S build, with GX AXS T-type drivetrain, Maven Bronze brakes with a Rockshox Zeb Select and Vivid Select.
Although the Dreadnought is their more popular model, you may find the Druid a better bet for a short travel, sprightlier trail bike - but that is all down to personal preference! For other big travel Enduro bikes, we also offer the Hope HB916 or Santa Cruz Megatower and Nomad.
