Expirience with the Forbidden Druid GX AXS RS Mullet

Forbidden Druid GX AXS RS Mullet Review The Canadians from Forbidden design bikes with exactly one goal in mind. Maximum downhill performance. And so it comes that even the Druid GX AXS RS Mullet with 150 mm_front suspension travel on the fork is given a high-pivot rear end, which is otherwise only known from purebred enduros. The high main pivot point allows the rear wheel to first move to the rear when compressing the rear shock, which should make the characteristics, despite tightly measured 130 millimeters of travel in the rear, particularly smooth even in rough terrain. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the Forbidden Fully, the 65 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the in alpine terrain should be considered pleasant. If you want to hunt Strava-KOMs uphill, the Forbidden Druid GX AXS RS Mullet is probably not the right bike for you. For this, the shifting components are pretty much the best thing you can expect on a complete bike for 7499 Euro .
