A direct hit for Tour & Trail: Ghost Hybride ASX 6.7+
Ghost launched the hybrid ASX 6.7+ in 2020 without much fanfare. But the bike deserved more attention!

In 2018, the Ghost SL AMR X with Shimano drivetrain blew our socks off. With its uncompromising design, it scored top marks both uphill and downhill. Although the hybrid ASX, which Ghost recently launched on the market, is not a pure Bosch counterpart to the SL AMR X, it cannot deny some similarities. The geometry is sporty and modern, the front end is high. The wheel mix of 29 inches at the front and 27.5 at the rear combines the best of both worlds.

Florentin Vesenbeckh has been on a mountain bike since he was ten years old. Even on his very first tour, he focussed on single trails - and even after more than 30 years in the saddle of an MTB, these are still the quintessence of biking for him. He spent his youth competing in various bike disciplines and later his cycling career was characterised by years as a riding technique coach. Professionally, the experienced test editor now focusses on e-mountainbikes. In recent years, the qualified sports scientist and trained journalist has tested over 300 bikes and more than 40 different motor systems in the laboratory and in practice.
