The E-ASX 160 Essential forgoes technical bells and whistles to keep costs as low as possible for the customer.
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. No matter how steep or technical the climb is: the Bosch motor makes it conquerable! At the same time, the drive provides a very natural feeling while riding with a dynamic power delivery. The well-tuned riding modes cater to bikers of all preferences. Whoever enjoys longer tours will be pleased with the good range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the E-ASX 160 Essential in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

On rough descents, the moderate chassis limits you and demands a more precise line choice than bikes with better chassis. At the brakes, Ghost middle class four pistons brakes by Shimano are used. The components and the shifting seem less important for Ghost. The components used here have a clear potential for improvement after a view at the competitors. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. Even when it gets really steep, the long chainstays will stick the front wheel to the ground. Hell yeah, the geometry is killer! Here the know-how of the Ghost developers is videly visible.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Ghost E-ASX 160 Essential

With a very good geometry, a good motor and a good range the E-ASX 160 Essential counts among the better climbers on the market. This emphasizes its fun factor on tours on extreme technical trails. Nevertheless, a weak groupset also give cause for criticism. We have to stay honest. The guarantee promise of 5 years provides trust.
