2026 Forbidden Supernought T2

Polished for Downhill The Supernought 2026 is a purpose-built downhill machine designed for riders who want maximum speed and control when the terrain gets serious. With 205 mm of rear travel and a refined high pivot layout, it delivers a planted, composed ride that stays stable when everything else feels chaotic. This is not about versatility. It is about going faster where it matters most. On track, the suspension works to carry momentum through roots, square edges, and braking bumps without losing control. The bike holds its line under pressure, absorbs repeated hits with ease, and keeps traction consistent when speeds climb. It encourages late braking, confident line choices, and full commitment in rough sections. Built for downhill riders who want precision, stability, and confidence when pushing limits.
