This 2024 Forbidden Druid GX AXS RS S in Green is a remarkably capable carbon trail bike built around Forbidden’s high-pivot Trifecta V2 suspension platform. With 150mm of travel up front and 130mm at the rear, the Druid blends the efficiency and agility of a shorter-travel trail bike with the calm, planted character normally associated with much bigger machines. This S2 demo bike pairs that distinctive chassis with SRAM’s wireless GX Eagle Transmission and a fitted DT Swiss XM1700 alloy wheelset, creating a premium, hard-charging build at a substantial savings from its original MSRP.
Condition Notes:
- Scratches on crank arms
- Minor scuffs on rear triangle
- Scratches on right side of top tube near seat tube
- Minor scratch on top tube below Druid logo
- Scratches inside of rear wheel tunnel
- Minor scuffs on both wheel rims
The Druid V2 frame uses high-modulus carbon fiber and Forbidden’s size-specific One Ride geometry to deliver a consistent handling balance across the full size range. Its Trifecta V2 high-pivot four-bar suspension layout manages axle path and chain growth in a way that helps the bike remain composed through square-edge impacts, rough braking zones, and successive hits. The resulting ride feels stable and controlled at speed, yet the modest travel numbers keep the Druid responsive when pumping terrain, changing lines, or accelerating out of corners.
A 150mm RockShox Lyrik Select fork provides a stout 35mm chassis and a Charger damper for controlled performance on demanding trails. The rear suspension is managed by a RockShox Super Deluxe shock tuned around the Druid’s 130mm platform. Together, the suspension components give the bike the support needed for technical descents while maintaining useful pedaling manners for long climbs and all-day trail rides. The Druid is especially well suited to riders who want one bike that rewards aggressive descending without feeling excessive on everyday terrain.
SRAM GX Eagle AXS Transmission provides precise electronic shifting with a hangerless interface designed for strength, clean setup, and consistent performance under load. The 10-52-tooth cassette supplies a wide climbing range while preserving useful top-end gearing for fast trail sections. A GX crankset and T-Type chain complete the drivetrain, delivering a cohesive wireless system with no shift cable to stretch, contaminate, or adjust. SRAM Code Bronze Stealth four-piston brakes provide the stopping power and modulation needed for sustained descents and high-speed control.
This bike differs from the original stock wheel specification because it is fitted with DT Swiss XM1700 alloy wheels. The XM1700 wheelset is a proven trail and all-mountain option that balances durability, sensible weight, and serviceability. Its wide alloy rims provide a supportive platform for modern trail tires, while DT Swiss hub internals are known for dependable engagement and straightforward maintenance. The fitted wheel upgrade is reflected throughout this listing rather than the original Crankbrothers Synthesis alloy wheel specification.
A OneUp dropper post allows the saddle to move quickly out of the way for descending, while the Forbidden cockpit provides a centered and controlled riding position. The 29-inch wheel platform helps the Druid carry speed across rough ground and maintain traction on technical climbs. Practical frame details, including a threaded bottom bracket and durable Enduro Max bearings, support long-term ownership and simplify routine service.
The 2024 Forbidden Druid GX AXS RS S is an unconventional trail bike in the best possible way. It pedals efficiently enough for big mileage, corners with confidence, and delivers stability that exceeds what many riders expect from 130mm of rear travel. With wireless GX Transmission, powerful four-piston brakes, RockShox suspension, and the upgraded DT Swiss XM1700 alloy wheelset, this Green S2 demo bike offers a compelling opportunity for a rider who values speed, composure, and a distinctive high-pivot ride.
