The Druid E takes what riders love about the Druid - the calm, planted high-pivot ride and the way it holds speed through rough ground - and adds full-power Avinox assist. With 150mm out back and a 160mm fork on mixed wheels, it's an all-mountain e-MTB that gets you to the top without fuss and is a proper blast on the way back down. Forbidden's proportional One Ride geometry means every size from S1 to S4 rides the same way, so shorter and taller riders get the same balanced handling.
The Druid E T4 is the entry point to the range, but there's nothing basic about it: RockShox Lyrik and Super Deluxe suspension, Avinox M2 drive, SRAM Eagle 70 T-Type shifting and SRAM DB4 4-piston brakes. This one runs the 800Wh battery for maximum range on big days and long loops. Forbidden bikes are special order, so drop into Jetty Road Cycles in Rosebud or get in touch to check availability and sizing - our workshop will have it dialled before you ride away.
