The Forbidden Druid has earned a devoted following among aggressive trail and enduro riders for its exceptionally progressive geometry and Ratio Technology linkage, and this Large 2022 example arrives in like-new, take-off condition — meaning it presents as essentially unridden, letting the next owner skip the break-in period entirely. The standout upgrade here is the Mercury Wheels X1 Carbon wheelset laced to Silver Onyx hubs, a custom build valued at $2,600 on its own that dramatically elevates the stiffness-to-weight ratio of an already capable platform. Up front, the Marzocchi Bomber Z1 handles 150mm of travel while the Fox Float DPX2 manages 130mm out back, a well-matched suspension pairing for rowdy singletrack. SRAM XO1 Eagle shifting paired with a GX Eagle T-Type drivetrain delivers crisp, reliable 12-speed performance, and the Shimano XT 4-piston brakes provide the stopping confidence this geometry demands. A mixed Maxxis tire setup — Assegai up front, Minion DHR II rear — rounds out a build that is genuinely trail-ready right out of the box at a significant discount from its $8,500 original retail.
| Condition | Like-New - A New Take-Off, Appears To Not Be Used |
| Condition Notes | Frame presents in like-new condition with very light signs of use. Drivetrain components show very very light use — crankset, rear derailleur, and cassette appear nearly new. Shimano XT brakes and levers are clean and functional. Maxxis tires retain excellent tread depth and are in new condition. Marzocchi Bomber Z1 fork and rear shock are clean and functional. Overall a near-new trail-ready full suspension mountain bike. |
