Druid E
The current carbon Druid E combines 160/150 mm travel and mixed wheels with four equipment tiers, each offered with a 600 or 800 Wh battery. Tiers 1–2 use Avinox M2S; tiers 3–4 use M2. Existing priced configurations retain their dated euro quotes; prices for the six newly documented combinations are unknown. This is not the original M1-powered CorE/LitE platform.

This redraw illustrates measurement locations, not the selected bike's frame or proportions. The values alongside are documented for the selected size. Unavailable measurements remain undocumented. Fork length is not suspension travel.

Both layers use the same transparent reference artwork, aligned at the bottom bracket. Each is scaled horizontally by its published reach and vertically by its stack. This illustrates reach and stack differences only: wheelbase, angles, wheels and frame shapes are not reconstructed. Use the documented values and deltas below for all other measurements. This is not a fit prediction.

Each Δ column compares that size with the first size shown, not the currently selected size. Changing build can change the reference size. Deltas are numerical only; size labels, setup and measurement conditions must be considered.
