Forbidden 2027 Dreadnought E T3 Complete Mx 800w - Back To The Beginning | M2

Forbidden Dreadnought E T3, Back To The Beginning

Take on rough descents and head back for another lap with the Dreadnought E T3. Its full-carbon chassis pairs 170mm of rear travel with a 180mm RockShox ZEB Select+ fork, giving you a long-travel platform for demanding terrain. The mixed-wheel layout combines a 29-inch front wheel with a 27.5-inch rear wheel, balancing rollover up front with manoeuvrability at the rear.

This build pairs an Avinox M2 drive system and 800Wh battery with SRAM Eagle 90 mechanical T-Type shifting. RockShox suspension adjustment and SRAM Maven Base brakes let you tune the bike for steep trails, hard braking and repeated descents.
