Expirience with the Ghost Nirvana Trail Universal

Ludwig Döhl The Nirvana Trail Universal has been radically designed for downhill fun with ample suspension travel on the fork. The moderate 66 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. There are bikes with a more sporty, but also with more comfortable seating approach. The Ghost Nirvana Trail Universal wants to combine the best of the two worlds with a moderate orientation. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the All Mountain of Ghost doesn't really suit you. Other manufacturers build All Mountain in the same price range that are more focused on descends. With the shifting components, Ghost fulfills not only the current standard, but even puts the icing on the cake with its extremely high-quality components. Ghost gives 5 years warranty on the bike. Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Ghost Nirvana Trail Universal sizing runs big.
