Kristian's Forbidden Druid

Posted by Chris Dalziel on

Another stunner rolling out the door, this our first 'Blue Steel' Forbidden Druid frame. Kristian built this custom Druid using the For The Riders 'House Build' program to select a range of quality parts from Sram, Rockshox, Truvativ, Goodyear, DT Swiss, maximising that price to performance ratio! Check out the final spec below.

Sram Guide RE brakes pack a surprising punch, originally designed for E-bikes we've had great success with them on trail and Enduro bikes. The brakes have a guide lever but a Code calliper, keeping the weight down a little but still offering plenty of power! This along with some other strategic decisions give this bike some serious performance that far outweighs it's price tag.
