The Forbidden Druid LitE is Coming Soon — Reserve Yours Now
Lighter. Smarter. Just as Wild.
The New Forbidden Druid LitE Is Available for Preorder
The Druid just got an electrifying upgrade—and a whole lot lighter. The brand-new Forbidden Druid LitE is landing this September, and we’ve secured just 4 of them at Outside Sports.
Powered by the revolutionary DJI Avinox motor system, this trail-focused eMTB blends smooth, high-pivot performance with a sub-46 kg build and a next-gen ride feel. Think confident descents, poppy agility, and unreal control—all with a motor that keeps it light, quiet, and seriously powerful.
This is the e-bike for riders who want the same wild geometry and suspension platform that made the Druid famous, now with an edge in tech, weight, and versatility.
What Makes the Druid LitE So Special?
DJI Avinox drive unit: Up to 105 Nm of torque, 850 W peak (1,000 W in Boost), whisper-quiet and buttery smooth
With its mixed-wheel setup (29" front, 27.5" rear), this bike is playful and capable across everything from tight trail networks to steep alpine descents. The LitE isn't just electric—it’s exceptional.
