The Ghost Kato Essential 29" mountain bike is a classic mountain bike featuring comfortable, well-balanced geometry that doesn’t strain the rider’s back, neck, or wrists. The GHOST KATO is a fast, versatile hardtail with sporty yet rider-friendly frame geometry. Thanks to its ample gear range, it can handle even demanding off-road climbs, but above all, it’s made for getting lost on nature trails. The complete KATO model range features a 100 mm travel SR Suntour suspension fork, a 3x8 drivetrain with a Shimano Acera rear derailleur, and Tektro brakes.
