A High Carbon Uni frame combines with 180mm front suspension, adjustable geometry and gravity-focused components for riders who spend more time looking for the next descent than chasing climbing efficiency.Adjustability is built into the Poacha frame. Ghost's manufacturer information specifies a Flip Chip for geometry adjustment, while the Acros headset provides an additional +/-5mm of reach adjustment. Together, they allow riders to fine-tune the bike's fit and handling to suit their preferences and terrain.Ghost also describes the Poacha as using a mullet wheel configuration. However, the supplied specification lists a 29in DT Swiss FR 1500 rim and 60-622 Continental tyres, equivalent to 29in, without providing a separate rear wheel specification. I've therefore avoided stating specific front and rear wheel sizes until that information can be confirmed.Up front, the RockShox ZEB Ultimate provides 180mm of travel. It combines a DebonAir+ air spring with the Charger 3.1 RC2 damper, giving riders extensive suspension adjustment and a substantial chassis designed around aggressive gravity riding.A RockShox Vivid Ultimate air shock manages the rear suspension. The supplied shock measures 250x70mm, but the specification doesn't state the frame's actual rear-wheel travel. I've therefore avoided deriving a rear travel figure from the shock dimensions.SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type provides wireless electronic 1x12-speed shifting. The GX Eagle AXS rear derailleur is controlled by an AXS Pod Controller and paired with an XS-1275 Eagle T-Type cassette and GX Eagle T-Type chain.The drivetrain also uses a SRAM GX Eagle DUB T-Type crankset with 165mm crank arms and an integrated guard. The shorter cranks provide useful ground clearance when riding through rough terrain, while the guard adds protection around the chainring.SRAM Maven Silver hydraulic disc brakes provide four-piston braking at both ends. Large 220mm rotors are fitted front and rear, giving the Poacha a braking setup designed for controlling speed on steep terrain and repeated gravity runs.DT Swiss FR 1500 Classic wheels use 30mm-wide rims and are designed with freeride use in mind. They're paired with Continental Kryptotal-Fr Enduro Soft tyres in a 60-622 size, with tubeless-ready construction and Soft compound.A TranzX +RAD dropper post provides 180mm of travel, allowing the saddle to be lowered for jumps, steep sections and technical descents. It's paired with a 145mm-wide Prologo Proxim Nembo saddle with steel rails.The cockpit continues the gravity-focused setup with a short 40mm Truvativ Descendant stem and Descendant downhill riser handlebar. The bar uses a 35mm clamp diameter and 25mm rise.Overall, the Ghost Poacha Full Party combines a carbon chassis with high-level RockShox suspension, wireless SRAM GX Eagle AXS shifting and powerful Maven Silver brakes. Its adjustable geometry and gravity-focused build make it particularly suited to riders prioritising freeride, jumps, technical descents and bike park laps.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.
