Its high pivot Trifecta suspension platform defies logic. Simultaneously generating predictable traction and playful pop while offering an otherworldly ability to devour chunky terrain. With geometry that effortlessly balances stability and agility, the Druid is a trail bike through and through. This bike is equally at home hammering out trail rides after work, ripping weekend shuttle laps, and crushing epic alpine traverses. This humble (on paper) trail bike boasts on-trail characteristics that don’t just punch above their class they defy classification altogether. A bike that delivers pedal-all-day efficiency when you want it and tech-descent-tackling confidence when you need it. A short travel trail bike by definition but a kilometer-crushing, chunder-devouring, fun machine by any other description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal color:\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 600;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eAVAILABLE COLOURWAYS:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #000000; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal color:\u003eSpruce Almighty | Stardust | Dr Greenthumb | Lilac Summer Daze\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #000000; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #000000; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal color:\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eAVAILABLE IN FRAMESET (ONLY) \u0026amp; 4 BUILDS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #000000; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal color:\u003eSpruce Almighty | Stardust Druid Frameset (Only) - RRP $6,299.95\u003cbr\u003eDr Greenthumb | Lilac Summer Daze Druid Frameset (Only) - RRP $6,699.95\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpruce Almighty | Stardust Druid Build 3 GX - RRP $10,899.95\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDr Greenthumb | Lilac Summer Daze Druid Build 3 GX S - RRP $11,299.95\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #000000; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal color:\u003eDr Greenthumb | Lilac Summer Daze Druid Build 2 GX S+ - RRP $12,799.95\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #000000; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2dc26b;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif text-align: left white-space: normal\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: \" helvetica neue arial sans-serif font-size: text-align: left white-space: normal\u003eDr Greenthumb | Lilac Summer Daze \u003c\/span\u003eDruid Build 1 XO - RRP $16,199.95\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eINTENDED USE\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAll Mountain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSUSPENSION\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e130mm Rear - 150mm Front\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWHEELSIZE\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eFull 29” or Mixed (MX)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThings you should know\/\/\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eV2 FRAME LAYOUT\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;\"\u003eThe second iteration of Druid sees a shift to an inverted four-bar suspension design. This evolution was necessitated by our desire to retain the ride characteristics of the original Druid while achieving certain design goals.
