In 2006 Ghost launched the AMR series of bikes to bridge the gap between their RT Cross Country fully suspended frames and the highly praised ERT Endurance four bar linkage frames. The AMR became an overnight success as their perfect all rounder became a reality; Due to their Optimal Touring Performance (OTP) with 120mm travel they are not only capable of off road touring but can also cope with a hard marathon events as well as demanding descents. The torsion resistant frames feature SCL (Specific Chainstay Length according to frame size) and their amazingly sensitive, fully developed kinematics optimizing drivetrain performance, the AMR Bikes are in a class of their own and feel comfortable in any terrain.
For 2008 Ghost has further refined an already fantastic frame to improve handling and comfort with slight changes to the wheelbase and geometry. AMR bikes feature 3D Hydro shaped frame tubes with intelligent material usage, innovative design and improved stand over top tube clearance, numerous gussets and redesigned dropouts.
Ghost AMR; The new reference within the All-Mountain class.
Due to popular demand Ghost has introduced an entry level model offering top performance at an affordable price. Plush responsive suspension travel is provided through the Ghost/Fusion O2 PVA rear damping system and Marzocchi Bomber MX Pro suspension fork with 120mm travel and Lock-Out. The perfect bike wherever you go which can easily keep up with it's bigger brothers.

About Ghost:
With innovation and value key to their success, Ghost is Germany's leading bicycle brand.

And in spite of all innovation and technical advances, one thing did not get lost with Ghost: The love of the bike and the passion for the essentials.
The result: Bikes that arouse enthusiasm and with a price-performance ratio which is hard to beat.
