Expirience with the Ghost LECTOR FS SF ESSENTIAL

Ghost LECTOR FS SF ESSENTIAL Review Anne Terpstra has won a Cross Country World Cup on the LECTOR FS SF ESSENTIAL . So the speed check has been passed. But the rest of the concept of the bike is also fully convincing. From frame size L it even comes with 120 mm travel. If you ride super fast on tricky singletrails, you will love the calm handling of the Ghost Fully. If you want to get ahead efficiently and quickly, you will welcome the sporty riding position. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the Downcountry-Bike von Ghost doesn't really suit you. Other manufacturers build Downcountry-Bike in the same price range that are more focused on descends. Athletes should nevertheless pay attention to this bike, because on the way to the summit, the LECTOR FS SF ESSENTIAL leaves the remaining Downcountry-Bikes in the dust. With 5 years the warranty is another neat feature. Pay attention when selecting your size: the Ghost LECTOR FS SF ESSENTIAL sizing runs big.
