Expirience with the Ghost RIOT TRAIL AL

Ludwig Döhl Fun is the name of the game when you ride the Ghost RIOT TRAIL AL on demanding trails. The combination of a 66 degree head tube angle and a long wheelbase calms down the handling of the All Mountain von Ghost, even if you ride fast. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the RIOT TRAIL AL, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. For this, the shifting components are pretty much the best thing you can expect on a complete bike for 2599 Euro . With 5 years the warranty is another neat feature.
