Kenny's Ultra Custom Forbidden Supernought

Last summer, we posted Kenny's Forbidden Supernought, and now we're stoked to share some exciting updates to his already super rad build! We worked with Kenny to piece together some cool parts that we don't normally stock in the shop, along with some bangers that he brought along to. He added a bunch of Titanium pieces, like cranks from 5Dev, some limited edition touch points from Ergon, and silver Chris King finishing touches. Not to mention, he sought out Dylan Forbes Signature Design here in Calgary for the ultimate custom paint job. This is a really special bike, and we couldn't be more excited for Kenny!
