    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Nice. Glad you’re loving it. I’m leaning towards going with the new superdeluxe after reading it’s a bit more poppy/well rounded. I plan on buying a bigger bike for the steeper days(whole other convo dreadnoughtE/zendit/crestline haha). Edit: pulled the trigger and am gonna swap the coil for a...

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Good to know. Thank you! Maybe I just swap the coil and see what happens. I guess the question now is what direction to go. Get a vivid air or something more lightweight like a fox float x or super deluxe? Any thoughts?

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Interesting. I definitely had the opposite experience on my bike, but again it has the coil and a zeb. For example, on flowy sections of trail with berms I feel like my bike sucks the life out of the momentum where the lte just flew through it and felt way more responsive and poppy. Frustrating...

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    It’s straight out of the box. I was considering trying a 650 pound coil but since my sag is right where it’s supposed to be, I ended up just scratching my head. At this point I’m tempted to just throw an air shock on it and see how it changes.

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Looking for some advice/help. Have a core with zeb 3.1 and vivid ultimate coil. I’m debating on selling it because it feels somewhat sluggish/heavy relative to the travel. Could this just be my settings? I’m 220 with a 600 pound coil. Sag seems to be spot on at 30%. Been demo’ing other bikes...

    Yeti MTe vs Trek Fuel+ EX

    Random but has anyone heard of upcoming updates to the MTE builds? Another thread talked about updates for the LTE, so wondering about the MTE as I’m about to pull the trigger on purchasing one!

    Orbea x Avinox Rumours

    I’m trying to figure out if there’s going to be a full powered rallon. Is that what I am reading in this thread in addition to the wild!?

    2026 Yeti LTE

    Any idea when this will be released? I demo’d the bike today and it was an absolute ripper. However, I’d definitely want the CXR motor

    Crestline RS 181.2 thread – builds, reviews, technical info

    What are people’s experiences with getting deep into the travel? I was reading through the pinkbike review again this morning and find it interesting that they say it’s unsettled deep into the travel. Troydon(I love how responsive and active he is) mentioned the designed leverage curve etc. and...

    Crestline RS 181.2 thread – builds, reviews, technical info

    Hi all. What’s the general consensus on air shock vs coil on this bad boy? Building up mine and struggling to decide on what direction to go. Ideally I want the bike to feel lighter so leaning towards air shock but so many people seem to love coils on it. I’m about 100kg if it matters! Riding in...

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    Nice! I really appreciate that insight, I’d love to ride the dready but I think it just might not be what I’m looking for despite originally thinking it was. In my progression as a rider I am still learning what I like and don’t like and comments like yours help me narrow things down. Thanks!

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    Thanks! I'm roughly 100kg and also feeling the limits of the 150 so have been looking for a bigger bike. I'm starting to consider the new crestline as well. I'm curious how different dread daddy and the crestie are to each other.

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Seems like it with all the geo adjustments. I don’t remember if that was an option on the bike I demo’d. Either way it was immediately removed from consideration from me pretty quickly after that ride.

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Oh man. That is awful. I demo’d last years model and hated it personally. The new versions seems considerably updated from that however

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Haha which version is that? What do you like about it over your Druid?

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    Looks like a lot of people getting their bikes and initial rides in! Anyone with a Druid E fill us in how different they feel!

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    I reached out to my lbs and forbidden about it. Waiting to hear back. Your pics confirm my suspicions that something has changed. I definitely never noticed anything there prior to recently. Edit: I heard back from Forbidden directly. They said it’s normal variation on the bikes and nothing to...
