Forbidden Druid V2 build.

Awesome bike, have a couple things i might want to change, but overall a deadly setup. Just over 31.2 oz. With tannus inserts front and back. Ti waterbottle cage, because I'm extra.

Sweet ride you got there man! Is that a 160mm fork or 150mm? Looks freaking badass either way

The bike rips! High-pivot witchcraft is the real deal.

I will likely swap the dropper for a wireless bikeyoke, or possibly a next gen axs reverb, if they ever release it.

I was going to swap the shock to an ohlins shock, but I haven't felt the need to switch, the stock shock has been working great.

Sounds like a good upgrade and agree..some of the stock parts work well. I upted for the frameset and built up the bike pretty custom - big fan of Canadian Brands, thus Oneup,WA1 and Forbidden. Its a really great bike and works well in all terrain..get some funny comments from guys with 170mm bikes riding the same terrain though - but once you ride it you never think its just a 130mm bike.

Beautiful and well thought out build..must be pretty great to ride?

You mentioned "a couple things I might change" - what might those changes be if I might ask?
