For aspiring off-road riders, the Kato line is cost-effective, but in no way cheap. Ghost designed the Kato FS 3 with an affordable aluminum frame, but decked it out with features from its top-of-the-line models. Their famous 4-bar frame linkage lets you brake hard without compromising the performance of the X-Fusion O2 rear shock. The RockShox Recon fork has 130mm of travel to absorb chunder and let you focus on the flow. With Shimano® components and 27.5in. wheels, this rig provides fast, smooth riding with agility for mountain touring.

Hydroformed aluminum frame is strong and durable, while keeping the weight low and the cost reasonable

Tapered head tube is wider at the bottom for better force transfer from the fork to the frame. The increased stiffness offers direct, reactive steering

RockShox Recon front suspension can be locked out to improve efficiency when climbing

X-Fusion O2 RL rear shock gives you options to adjust the compression and the rebound

XT Plus rear derailleur has a one-way ratcheting cam that prevents your rear derailleur and chain from bouncing around down tricky lines

Shimano Deore, SLX and XT components deliver speed and control, and hydraulic disc brakes provide precise stopping power

Needle bearing system in the rear shock eye replace commonly used bushings for minimum break-away torque (less force applied to activate the shock). Allows great small-bump responsiveness. Reverse hanger technology creates more direct shifting, mounting the hanger on the inside of the chain stay, reducing bending stress during shifting 27.5in. wheels hit the sweet spot between a 29 and 26-inch rig

Ghost Bikes are designed in Waldsassen, Germany. Every model reflects a deep passion for cycling and meticulous attention to detail
