Forbidden Reya Meet Reya. A short travel trail bike done the Forbidden way. Proportional geo, predictable handling, anda penchant for serving a disproportionate dose of confidence. Up, down, cross country, or back country,this punchy little bike covers ground efficiently while retaining its ability to get rowdy and hang toughwhen the trail gets rough.This is suspension and geometry done right. This is not an XC bike with pumped-up travel. It is a bike built from the ground up to maximise fun andspeed, especially on trails that don't require the axle path of Druid. Geometrey Like all of our bikes, Reya uses our OneRide geometry philosophy. Genuinely proportional rear centresacross the size range. Something you won't find on any other short travel bike. The benefits are thesame as on all our bikes: better weight distribution, balanced suspension feel, and consistentfront-to-rear tire grip. Plus, you get the same intended trail characteristic across all sizes, regardless of rider stature or size.We've paired that with steeper seat tube angles on the larger sizes, keeping rider position centred andefficient when the trail points uphill.Reimagined Trifecta KinematicAt the heart of the bike is a reimagined TRIFECTA kinematic. We put less priority on the axle path andmore on getting the right suspension characteristic for the intended trail and use case for this category.The goal was simple: squeeze every ounce of performance out of 120 millimetres of rear wheel travel,whether you're climbing, sprinting, or pointing it downhill. No flex stays here. No compromisedsuspension characteristics. No loss of sensitivity. This is a proper linkage-driven bike. The leverage curve is progressive, and that's for good reason. It gives consistent support through thetravel, maximising how efficiently energy transfers from you through the bike and into the ground. Thatapplies whether you're pedalling or pumping into terrain.The advent of larger-volume air cans on shocks has enabled us to complement the progressivity of thelinkage to deliver sensitivity and traction where it matters, without sacrificing bottom-out resistance. Pedal Kickback No idler. No problem. We fine-tuned chain feedback to give complementary behaviour across the gear range. A little moretension in the easier gears, less in the harder gears. The result is a bike that feels calm when you'reclimbing and effortless on the way down. Pair that with a consistent 80% anti-rise, and you have apredictable, surefooted platform with no surprises when things get steep or rough. Anti-squat sits around 110% at sag in the climbing gears, which hits our desired sweet spot. It's stableunder power, but still active enough to track the ground on the techy stuff. As you move into hardergears, anti-squat increases, so when it's time to stamp on the pedals, the bike resists diving into itstravel, meaning more of your effort turns into forward motion. Finer Details Accessory mounts and room for a full-size bottle on all sizes. Just the one bottle, actually, and that'sintentional. We prioritised shock mount locations over two bottle cages. The shock is mounted off thebottom bracket area, which gives us a stiffer base and reduces torsional loads compared to top-tubemounted shocks. It also keeps the shock mass lower in the frame. No internal frame storage. That's also intentional. It adds weight you can't remove, unlike a strapped-ontube and tool or a pump on accessory mounts. And let's be real, massive downtubes aren't exactlydoing anyone any favours aesthetically. Honestly, modern hydration packs are pretty good. Despite being light and lively, this thing is built to last. We've used a full complement of properly sizedbearings. No undergunned hardware, no corners cut. It's a durable package without the penalty youusually pay for durability. No headset routing. Instead, we use our versatile cable management system so you can run yourbrakes whichever way you want and even have a cable-actuated shock lockout if you wish. We've alsoincluded ISCG mounts for those nifty little chain guides.
