The Forbidden Dreadnought V2 is the evolution of a category-defying high-pivot platform. Engineered for enduro and bike park dominance, and building upon the performance legacy of its predecessor with refined details and increased travel. Featuring 160mm of rear suspension and 170mm up front, it’s a powerhouse designed to conquer the most demanding trails, from World Cup downhill circuits to rugged bike park laps and everything in between. With the same next-gen suspension seen on the Druid and Supernought, the V2 elevates performance, offering even more precision and control in aggressive terrain.
