Expirience with the Ghost LECTOR ADVANCED

Ludwig Döhl Under the wing of the Ghost Racing Team, the Lector is probably one of the most successful hardtails currently being ridden in the World Cup. The configuration of the LECTOR ADVANCED is not identical to that of the race bikes, but the frame is the same. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. The sporty orientation of the Ghost Hardtail can't be denied. The Ghost Hardtail is superior on lung-searing climbs within the Downcountry-Bikes. The guarantee promise of 5 years ensures trust. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
