With this mountain bike, you can push boundaries and win races - as team rider Anne Terpstra has already impressively proven in the World Cup. Based on the groundbreaking SuperFit concept, the LECTOR hardtail has become the ultimate cross-country machine, with which even the most technical descents can be mastered with confidence. Because SuperFit promises not only a perfectly fitting bike, but also full control, comfort and efficiency. New for this model year is the nobly equipped World Cup Replica Edition and the LECTOR Frameset, with which you can create your very own equipment variants.
AXS READY
The bike is particularly easy to convert to SRAM's electronic shifting system; no cable routing holes remain open in the frame.
SUPERFIT GEOMETRY
GHOST is ushering in a new era in bike development and saying goodbye to traditional construction methods. From now on, they rely on a specially developed algorithm for the holistic calculation of so-called "from-rider-to-bike geometries" for their bikes. This algorithm is called SuperFit.
Leaf spring design
Inspired by the way a leaf spring works, the rear triangle of the LECTOR has been completely redesigned to minimise vibrations at the rear of the frame. The result: improved traction at high speeds and more comfort for the rider.
Integrated down tube protector
The durable protector not only protects the down tube, but also the brake and shift cables that are routed underneath and beautifully trimmed. For easy handling, the protector can be removed and mounted without tools. This means that access to all cables is tool-free and they can be replaced easily at any time.
RIVKLE bottle cage
From frame size S-XL, two RIVKLE bottle cages always fit on the bike.
SuperFit saddles
SuperFit saddles are variably adjustable in width and therefore fit perfectly for every seat bone distance.
Eccentric grips
The eccentric shape of the grips allows for variable backsweep values. Special adjustment aids make it easier to adjust the brake levers to prevent pain and numbness.
Flat Mount Brake Bracket
In order to give the chain and seat stays the space they need to reduce vibrations, Ghost have opted for a Flat Mount brake mount. Looks compact and solves space problems.
Flex Stays - seat stay and chain stay
Invisible plus: The Flex Stays in the seat stay and chain stay give the rear triangle the possibility to deflect directionally upwards and are thus a big comfort plus.
Cleanly routed / easily accessible
Invisibly routed, but still openly accessible: with the special shape of the down tube, Ghost make the cables disappear. But if something should happen, you can still get to it without too much effort.
Wider is better
Boost means wider hubs. As simple as that is, the improvement is big: wider hubs bring more stability with larger wheel diameters.
Competition-oriented
The developers at Ghost know what it takes on the track. On the one hand because their team riders constantly provide them with a lot of feedback. On the other hand, the development team itself consists of former (and partly still active) riders. So Ghost deliver a race-ready product: out of the box ready for the track.
Best braking power / Best dosing
Whether in town or off-road: the hydraulic disc brakes grip reliably, safely and quickly even in wet conditions, can be dosed well and are not susceptible to dirt or loss of performance.
Tools smartly hidden
With the extremely light but robust Smarttube Tools, the most important tools you need when biking can be easily stowed in the handlebar. The minitool includes four hexagonal and one Torx 25 attachment. The Smarttube chain tool comes with tubeless repair function, tubeless plugs and a mount for a chain lock.
