Its aluminium frame is paired with a carbon fork, helping reduce weight at the front while retaining the durability and straightforward nature of an alloy gravel platform.Ghost has equipped the Asket with mounting points for panniers, mudguards and a kickstand. This gives riders plenty of options for adapting the bike, whether that's adding luggage for a bikepacking trip, fitting mudguards for year-round riding or setting it up for more practical everyday use.The supplied information doesn't state the frame's maximum tyre clearance or specify any dedicated compliance technology, so I've avoided adding unsupported figures or features. The standard bike is equipped with high-volume 45mm tyres.Shimano GRX provides the gravel-specific 1x12 drivetrain. A GRX RD-RX822-SGS Shadow+ rear derailleur is paired with a GRX ST-RX820-R Dual Control shift/brake lever, GRX FC-RX820-1 Hollowtech II chainset and Shimano XT CS-M8100 12-speed cassette.The single-chainring drivetrain keeps the gearing straightforward and removes the need for a front derailleur, while the Shadow+ rear mech is designed to help control chain movement when riding over rough and uneven surfaces. A Shimano XT CN-M8100 12-speed chain completes the drivetrain.Shimano GRX BR-RX820 hydraulic disc brakes use two-piston calipers and 160mm rotors front and rear. The hydraulic system provides controlled braking across changing surfaces and weather conditions, whether riding on tarmac, gravel tracks or steeper off-road sections.DT Swiss G 1800 Spline wheels use 25mm rims and are designed around gravel riding. The supplied front wheel specification uses a 12x100mm thru-axle and Center Lock disc interface.Continental Terra Adventure tyres measure 45-622, giving a 700c diameter and 45mm width. Their Trail Grip tread provides a more off-road-focused footprint than a conventional road tyre, with the extra volume helping provide comfort and traction over gravel and uneven surfaces.An XLC gravel drop handlebar provides the main contact point up front and is paired with a 60mm XLC stem. The shorter stem contributes to a compact cockpit suited to maintaining control when moving between road and off-road terrain.An XLC SP-R30 27.2mm seatpost is paired with a 143mm XLC Gravel Sport saddle, completing a component package chosen with mixed-surface riding in mind.Overall, the Ghost Asket Advanced offers a useful balance between sporty gravel riding and everyday versatility. Shimano GRX 1x12 gearing, hydraulic disc brakes, DT Swiss gravel wheels and 45mm tyres give it a capable mixed-surface setup, while the additional mounting points make it easy to adapt for bikepacking and practical riding.Please note: Ghost states that the frame is covered by a two-year warranty. Component availability may also result in some parts being substituted with equivalent alternatives.
