The best-selling Ghost E-ASX is almost unrecognisable. As with the new Carbon bike E-Riot (all info here) soft, curved shapes, straight tubes and a modern look. The touring version with 130 millimetres of suspension travel has been cancelled, but the E-ASX is now available in a completely new design as a fully with a low step-through. All models rely on the new Performance Line CX from Bosch, with prices starting at 4499 euros.

Ghost E-ASX High: All Mountain with 160/150 millimetres of suspension travel

Suspension travel brings riding safety. That's why the new Ghost E-ASX also relies on the 160 millimetres at the fork and 150 millimetres at the rear, which is now fairly standard for E-All-Mountains. Modern geometry values promise balanced riding behaviour. With the E-ASX Essential and the E-ASX ABS, both the most affordable and the most expensive model in the new range come from the series with the long suspension travel. For trail use, the High model is definitely the most exciting version of the new E-ASX.

Ghost E-ASX High EQ: SUV for difficult terrain

The Ghost E-ASX High EQ uses the same fully frame as the classic E-ASX, but comes with lights, pannier racks and mudguards as standard. Due to the everyday equipment, the suspension travel has been slightly reduced to 150/140 millimetres. The E-ASX High EQ is therefore designed to impress on off-road tours as well as in other outdoor applications.

The rear carrier carries panniers or other luggage weighing up to 25 kilograms, but does not offer a platform. Despite the SUV focus, grippy studded tyres provide plenty of traction off-road. Prices for the fully equipped E-ASX models start at 4999 euros.

Ghost E-ASX Low & Low EQ: low step-through trail bike

Have you seen this bike somewhere before? That's right! Because the Ghost E-ASX Low shares the same frame platform with Haibikes Alltrail and Advntr models. The special feature of this frame: Ghost and Haibike have succeeded in combining a real, low step-through with a long suspension travel of 140/130 millimetres. Normally, the suspension travel of fullys with a low step-through ends at 120 millimetres at the latest. The high weight allowance of 150 kilograms suggests a stiff frame and stable steering behaviour. Prices here also range between 4999 and 6499 euros.
