Expirience with the Ghost Lanao Essential 27.5

Ludwig Döhl When using the bike for on long tours, the Ghost Hardtail with its 100 mm on the fork is totally spot on. The short chainstays make for playful handling. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the in light terrain should be considered pleasant. For friends of sending it on rowdy trails: the last argument is still the strongest, because the harmonious geometry and the grippy tires cause you to smile from top to bottom in the descent. With 5 years the warranty is another neat feature.
