A new level of confidence has arrived. The Forbidden Dreadnought-E is built from the ground up for one purpose—to charge the most chaotic, rowdy lines you can find, then send you back to the top ready for more. Big travel. Full power. Zero hesitation.
At the core of the Dreadnought-E is a full carbon frame built around Forbidden’s Trifecta V3 high-pivot suspension platform. With 170mm of rear travel paired to a 180mm fork, the bike delivers a predictable, planted ride that thrives in rough terrain while still offering the pop and support needed to generate speed and stay playful.
The geometry is unapologetically downhill-focused. Designed as a mixed-wheel (MX) platform only, with a tall front end, slack angles, and shorter cranks, the Dreadnought-E positions the rider in a more centered, upright stance—delivering control and composure typically reserved for downhill race bikes.
Powering the Dreadnought-E is the latest Avinox drive system, featuring the all-new M2S and M2 motors. The M2S system delivers up to 1300W of peak power and 130Nm of torque (up to 150Nm in boost mode), while the M2 provides 1100W and 110Nm (125Nm boost). More importantly, it’s how that power is delivered—refined control allows you to maintain traction on steep, technical climbs while still delivering explosive acceleration when needed.
Paired with your choice of a 600Wh or 800Wh battery, the Dreadnought-E lets you prioritize either maximum handling or maximum range. Fast-charging capability gets you from 0–75% in just 1.5 hours, so you can spend more time riding and less time waiting.
The Avinox system also features a full-color OLED display, wireless controls, and deep app integration—allowing you to fine-tune assist modes, track ride data, and even integrate navigation directly into your cockpit.
Built with details that matter, the Dreadnought-E features a carbon rocker link for reduced weight and improved suspension performance, an updated e-bike-specific idler pulley for durability, clean external cable routing, and full in-house frame protection with RideWrap installed from the factory.
The Forbidden Dreadnought-E isn’t here to play nice—it’s here to go further, hit harder, and redefine what a full-power, big-travel e-MTB should feel like.
