In this version, the E-RIOT TRAIL PRO comes across more aesthetic than the cheaper aluminium version. The independent rear end concept with closed frame triangle for more stiffness stays the same.
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. The Bosch motor takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a very natural riding feeling and a progressive power delivery characterises the Bosch Performance Line CX. The well-tuned driving modes hit the mark. The average range can become a problem especially for long mountain bike rides.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Ghost E-RIOT TRAIL PRO in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (6000) .

No matter how tricky the ground may be, the excellent Fox chassis brings calmness and provides a lot of control. At the brakes, Ghost instals upper class brakes with four pistons and large brake rotors from Shimano. The shifting and the rest of the components are always in the shadow of the engine when it comes to electric mountain bikes. Nevertheless, Ghost doesn't skimp here and instals very good components. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. The low bottom bracket height will likely be a sticking point for trail riders, as it negatively affects handling. Hell yeah, the geometry is killer! Here the know-how of the Ghost developers is videly visible.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Ghost E-RIOT TRAIL PRO

Overall, the E-RIOT TRAIL PRO is, due to a very good chassis, a very good groupset and a very good geometry is a good all-rounder for trips even in alpine terrain. Only an average range slightly tarnish the otherwise successful overall picture. The generous warranty of 5 years proves that Ghost stands behind its products.
