I'm not a mountain biker, but I've been binge-watching all your content and I am very pleased with this channel. Your work is so well-made, and I can't stop watching. Love the content man.
I'm a runner, but I recently started looking at MTBs to buy one, and add a few workouts to my weekly schedule to get a diversified training load and now youtube suggests me these videos. I just wanted to say that watching this bike build is so freaking satisfying!
As per usual, nice vid Eric! My hope is that your videos will help keep heads up high during this pandemic. I look forward to both yours and Yuka's videos every week!
if i ever have a bad day or just need some stress relief, theres nothing better for me than watching bcpov, you guys are the best. both eric and van girl yuka.
I just saw Yuka's video about this and it got my attention. Your explanation of why the pivot is so high really gets my interest up on this design. And those bikes look dope as hell. I am intrigued and look forward to hearing your views on this bike over time. Thanks for sharing! Stay upright and keep the rubber side down. -Brian
You are so blessed to have those and to ride that beautiful bike! I wish that I will be able to have those someday! Ride safe and stay gnarly! God bless
Dude! What is that bike! I am always blown away by how the UA-cam mountain bike community reveals product after product that I would have never seen any other way. Thanks for sharing. Great video
Awesome looking bikes guys! I know you're gonna love them on higher speed trails. Interested to see what you think of them in tight corners too - the high pivot will make them get much longer as you plow through the travel, unlike your previous Horst-link Norcos which tend to stay nimble even farther through the travel.
Tip: clean and re-grease the bearings of that raceface BB with better grease. After 2 rides, the 2nd was wet, my bearing on the driveside was allready rusted shut. After cleaning and re-greasing it still works after many wet rides. I got the same combo BB/Turbine thats why I say ;) Further very nice bike man! Looks a bit strange with the High-Pivot-Point but probably rides awesome.
Hahah!! I literally stopped for a good 5 min at 8:10 just to think about how the pivot angle changes how the wheel moves when hitting a rock and how the power is transfered to the shock. I was thinking how this video would benefit from some explanatory sketches with arrows and assumed noone but me would bother. But lo and behold! Looks like we think alike! xD
I am so happy to see you went with maxxis big daddies!! They’re my favourite Tyre in the world and they don’t get enough praise, still get my first set from back in 2008 when they had a different name for the 22” series :D these bikes look absolutely beautiful! I wish I had the dish to drop on one like this, but with the Bafang m620 sitting in the bottom bracket
Reminds me of the Blafa BB7 DH bike from 20 years ago, I like the idler cog, I think Honda/Showa did something similar even before that. Looking forward to your first ride and review!
It is so good watching you guys together enjoying the sport. I don’t know if she is your girlfriend, wife or partner, but it is still cool riding with someone rather than by yourself. Kudos guys and take care!
Yeah I knew it was this bike as did many of us. I was stoked waiting because I knew this video was coming. I would love to get my hands on one of these and try one. They seem to only be available in a frame only version but hopefully soon I can find one to demo. So happy for you and the wife and your new sponsorship! That bikes are so rad and I don't know whose color I like better.
This has come a long ways ... I remember the first ones... wore you the heck out and drag you through the woods... I love this-- and would love to have one ... won’t be able to afford it tho ... thanks for the vid✌🏼👊🏼
My local shop here in Alberta carries Forbidden and are suuuuuuuuper huge fans. If there ever comes a time where I'm looking to buy an enduro frame, it'll probably be the Druid.
"pants"?? Mountainbiking? I'm sure you meant chamois. or shorts. or literally not pants. You don't wear pants on a bike that you spend this much money on.
Same, but I was really hoping he would youse the orange hub that he was holding first when comparing sounds. I think it would have looked amazing with the green frame
Not me, but I have Hope wheelsets on two bikes and Hope front hubs on 3 others, because they're cheaper than XTR and have 6 bolt disk mounts, so the disk doesn't go wobbly if you land backwards with the brake on riding street. I'd love to shut them up, though they're good for warning pedestrians I'm behind them on shared trails.
Interested to see how you like the tires. I’m on my third set. VERY Underrated. The race compound is the softest I’ve ever seen though, so they do wear ridiculously fast.
Oh wow that was awesome frame set. You are blessed though to ride and have that awesome bike. I wish that i can ride those bikes here in the Philippines. Wow! I'm desperately want to ride that kind of frame set. Always have a safety ride:)
that is some top notch kit on your bike as well very nice. And the one arm lift of the frame is duly noted . Looks great and i bet real fun too ride the trails or street on .

Dude, i said this is the forbidden on the last video!!
Congratulations! Beautiful bike!
I GOT IT RIGHT I REPLYED TO YOUR COMMENT AND SAID FORBIDDEN DRUID
Didn’t need a frame or wheel set, but I picked up a tailored wrap from Ride Wraps.
That’s one sweet looking bike Eric! Yuka too!
Congratulations Erick!!! Hello from Japan!
Another great video as always Eric (and yuka)! Stoked to see more awesome companies supporting awesome youtubers
Thanks Josh!

Love the content man.
I just went mountain biking for the first time last sunday and really enjoyed it. Thanks for getting me into the sport.
i refer to it as dodge tree and its a blast
great, how are you progressing dude?
Why did you stop mtb???
I'm a runner, but I recently started looking at MTBs to buy one, and add a few workouts to my weekly schedule to get a diversified training load and now youtube suggests me these videos. I just wanted to say that watching this bike build is so freaking satisfying!
This is cool to see! Let’s gets together this year if we can at somepoint! 🙏🏼
I hope we can! Things are kinda chaos with this virus atm!
oof this is really happening, my fav rider since trek and my fav youtube mtb channel
The two legendary forbidden riders 🤙🏻
damn that would be the dream 😁👍

As per usual, nice vid Eric!

When you said a new bike unlike any other, my mind literally went straight to the Druid! Congrats hope you enjoy the bike man
Grats on new sponsor youve both earnt it. When i saw lewis Buchanan unveil his druid i loved it now seeing 2nd unveil makes me want it even more.

Sam Platt same!!!!!!!!

That bike is so freaking sick dude! I’d love to ride that thing. Super sweet! Keep up the good stuff!
Glad you went with the Onyx hubs! Silent rolling through a forest is a BEAUTIFUL thing.
Cool can’t wait for you to try that new bike
You neeeeeeeed to get a collab with Lewis Buchanan cause he’s also a forbidden rider
I hope it happens, but this whole virus thing is getting in the way of a lot of things! 😬
@@BCpov yea i hate corona like freak men
Not for me..
@@jrc-fabs1634 hahahaha I know
*forbidden rider*
Lmao sounds like a myth

Cool upside down stays designed 🤘🏾
AH these are amazing looking. Gonna keep my eyes on one next year when I can save up for the big price tag for one. Very exciting move! good on you!

The aesthetic of this bike is 10/10 😍
Congrats dude I wish you the best for 2020!
Me when I land nose heavy on a big jump but i survive: 0:05
That’s a wicked looking ride! Can’t wait to see the new vids with that beast blasting along the trails 🤙
Dude, is this a stock colour? I’d like to order this colour
Yeah I knew it was this bike as did many of us. I was stoked waiting because I knew this video was coming. I would love to get my hands on one of these and try one. They seem to only be available in a frame only version but hopefully soon I can find one to demo. So happy for you and the wife and your new sponsorship!

Do you think you’ll ever go back to Kingdom trails and if so you should check out Moose Haven
Dude that place fuckin sends
sams bikes it sure does!!!
Hayden Gowell kingdom sucks now that I can’t go to nembafest
3 t’s are shut down though
Nembafest cancelled
Christopher Walsh yeah it’s a bummer that the three t’s are gone but I have a feeling black bear and stormin Norman will become must hits.
This has come a long ways ... I remember the first ones... wore you the heck out and drag you through the woods... I love this-- and would love to have one ... won’t be able to afford it tho ... thanks for the vid✌🏼👊🏼
"you should never ride without protection!" goes to get his bike protect coated.
Lol
Ongratulations on the Druids Eric and Yuka. That design has really made sense to me, so I'm excited to see how you two get along with it.
I'd love to go mountain biking, but there's no trails in my area. So, I'm building my own trail. I watch these videos to see what trails are like 😂
Check out Trailforks for finding trails
LOVE the choice of silent hubs!
I'm gonna missed the red ol' norco
Love the way you are handling the channel! Great work Eric!
Points to Industry 9 Hydra hubs and says “quiet hubs”.😂😂😂
Sweet ride there, saw your wife's video to on her bike build. Both bikes are so cool. Can't wait to see some videos of you two on your new rides.
Why did you choose to have different brands of tires?
stoked youre riding for forbidden dude! they look like such good bikes!
2 minutes before he posted I searched to see if he posted
My local shop here in Alberta carries Forbidden and are suuuuuuuuper huge fans. If there ever comes a time where I'm looking to buy an enduro frame, it'll probably be the Druid.
“Add a bit of seeant”
“Poor sin whole bottle”

Bloody gorgeous mate!! Knocked that build outta the park! Dream bike build!! 👍👍
Finally! Someone that apprecieates qiuet hubs!
Hell yes. I love the sound of these wide ass tires bikes have nowadays.
Congrats on the new bike! It looks super clean!
I feel like my pants would get hooked into that top sprocket
"pants"?? Mountainbiking?
I'm sure you meant chamois. or shorts. or literally not pants. You don't wear pants on a bike that you spend this much money on.
Tyler Garza ever heard of dh pants jerry
you wear pants, i ride with no pants and am often asked to leave the park for public indecency.
I love these frames with long chain😍😍 AMAZING bike!!!!!!!!!!!
We’re the founders of this comment section
first to comment!
I love those builds, as customized as it gets. Satisfying to watch. GJ
Same, but I was really hoping he would youse the orange hub that he was holding first when comparing sounds. I think it would have looked amazing with the green frame
The colors remind me of a donut on Krispy Kreme
Dang that is a sick build! Love that you stuck with a local BC bike company as well!
Who else likes loud hubs 😢
Not me, but I have Hope wheelsets on two bikes and Hope front hubs on 3 others, because they're cheaper than XTR and have 6 bolt disk mounts, so the disk doesn't go wobbly if you land backwards with the brake on riding street. I'd love to shut them up, though they're good for warning pedestrians I'm behind them on shared trails.

No one
Everyone
Yessir industry nine torch all the way
Nice bike! the colors and the rear suspension system is so sick! Enjoy!
No one:
Literally no one:
BCPOV: dekals
Stoked for ya'll! Looks awesome!
Why did he use such a small cassette
Wayyyyyyyyy cool bro !!! You are sooooo fortunate to be able to do this !!
Wish I had 4 grand to drop on a frame. Badass bike tho!
Love the new bike Eric, the Druid is a great looking frame and it looks so good in that colour. 🤘😎
"you should never ride without proper protection"
That's what she said
Sick bike 🤘🤘🤘
If I was fourty and still living with my parents I could afford a bike like that.
Great video. Thanks for the explanation of the suspension. It was clear and very understandable. I'm stoked to see ya ride it.
Yay I’m early in the comments... so what’s up
Stoked for you on the new bike sponsor! Also, I'm jealous of those Onyx hubs!
you should never ride without proper protection
visits the Trojan factory.
Interested to see how you like the tires. I’m on my third set. VERY Underrated. The race compound is the softest I’ve ever seen though, so they do wear ridiculously fast.
My eyes can't stop looking with this bike😱
Maybe there's someone who can gift me a mtb this christmas🥰😁
Keep safe everyone😇
So sick!!! One of my favorite bike companies.
Those orange hubs would looks so sick with that frame.
What a bike! Esta hermosa bro! Muchas felicidades por la nueva adquisición de los dos.
Congratulations on your new bike😁 can't wait to see you ride the bike🤪
So awesome! One of the loveliest looking bikes on the market!
Super la vidéo! J’ai grandement apprécié. Keep up the good work ✌️
Recognized the top tube markings right off, nice Druid, gorgeous color!
I'm anxious to hear how it climbs -
I didn't skip out boring parts in this video. Nice video!
I was watching building bikes videos on youtube, but nothing like this one....cool shots on the parts, cool commentary, cool quality with sunlight 👍🏻
Fantastic video on the benefits and mechanics of high single pivot bikes! Nice work work Eric!
Im so jealous!! What a sick bike with the dopest color
Love bike build process,glad you took us with it
I miss your old Slash... After all, you inspired me to get one! Hope the Druid holds up! Cant wait to see it in action.
Awesome Bike, great video
Oh wow that was awesome frame set. You are blessed though to ride and have that awesome bike. I wish that i can ride those bikes here in the Philippines. Wow! I'm desperately want to ride that kind of frame set. Always have a safety ride:)
I love these Forbidden Druids. Kinda would like to see it with a metal head tube badge though. Congrats!
My goodness. That is stunning. Well done sir.
I'm excited to see you ride the Druid! Definitely one of the most fascinating bikes I've seen yet!
"Ah yes Interesting" -Me, an Hardtail Enthusiast.
I'm freakin' now for that Onyx (1:51)! I'll have one or two of that soon!
Great video dude...Very informative! Sweet bike, Looking forward to see how it performs!
that is some top notch kit on your bike as well very nice. And the one arm lift of the frame is duly noted . Looks great and i bet real fun too ride the trails or street on .
that bike looks so sick! the colour is stunning too
love my onyx hub!!! rolling through the woods in silence is the best...... the instant engagement is a nice bonus too. :)
Just wanna say that i Love your videos and that you do a great job. Keep up the good work
Really cool bike!🔥 Can't wait for your next videos!!
nice build ! have fun !! looks great !!
