The "Lector SF Universal" model from Ghost, released in 2023, offers an impressive combination of lightness, stability and state-of-the-art technology at a price of 3,799 EUR. The frame is made from high-quality carbon (CARBON LECTOR LC) and the bike weighs just 11 kg in total, making it the ideal companion for challenging trails and fast rides.
Excellent braking performance is provided by the SRAM Level TL brakes with 180 mm rotors at the front and 160 mm at the rear. The drivetrain is a SRAM X01 Eagle 12-speed system, which enables precise and reliable gear changes.

The cassette is an SRAM XG 1275 with a range of 10–52 teeth, offering a wide range of gear ratios.
The Rock Shox SID SL Select RL fork, with 120 mm of travel (for size LXL), ensures excellent damping and control on rough terrain. The handlebars, which are between 700 mm and 760 mm wide depending on frame size, combined with the WTB Trail II grips and the Ground Fiftyone stem (45 mm length, 6-degree angle), provide comfortable and stable handling.
The wheelset consists of Syntace V25 hubs (15x110 mm at the front and 12x148 mm at the rear) and is fitted with Maxxis Ikon 3C MaxxSpeed Exo tyres in size 29x2.35, which provide excellent grip and speed. The saddle is a Selle Italia SLS, mounted on a GND 51 carbon seatpost with a diameter of 34.9 mm.
The frame geometry is carefully designed: the reach is 497 mm, the stack 635 mm, the seat tube length 465 mm and the top tube length 683 mm. The head tube angle is 68 degrees, the seat tube angle 74 degrees. The head tube is 110 mm long, the chainstay length is 430 mm, the bottom bracket is dropped by 60 mm, the standover height is 745 mm and the wheelbase measures 1214 mm in total.
