How it compares
150–160 mm at the fork almost exactly matches the 150 mm median of the 101 bikes in the “e-MTB for trail and touring” category in our database. Of Ghost’s e-mountain bikes, the Ghost Path Riot offers the least travel up front. Ghost builds the frame from carbon.
The Ghost Path Riot is not a budget bike: even the Advanced build costs €6,999, while the category median is €5,500. For the CF Ltd build, Ghost asks €11,000. The fork line-up ranges from the RockShox Lyrik Select Charger RC to the FOX 36 FLOAT Factory GRIP X2. It is powered by Fazua Ride 60 with a 480 Wh battery. According to Ghost, the maximum system weight (bike, rider and kit) is 120 kg.
Setup notes for this spec
- Air fork (RockShox Lyrik Select Charger RC): the air valve is on top of the left leg under a cap. Change pressure in small steps (about 5 psi (0.34 bar)) and cycle the fork a few times afterwards so the air chambers can equalise.
- Rebound: turn the red FOX and RockShox adjuster fully closed first and count clicks from there – that way you can note settings and restore them later.
- e-MTB: the extra weight mainly affects tyre pressure, which is why the table below already includes a surcharge. SAG is measured just as on a bike without a motor.
- Hardtail: only the fork needs setting up. With no rear suspension, rear tyre pressure is the key adjustment for comfort and grip.
Target SAG for the Ghost Path Riot
Instead of percentages, this table gives SAG directly in millimetres, measurable with the O-ring on the stanchion. Change the pressure step by step until you reach the value; if Ghost gives its own target SAG, use that.
150 mm fork (Advanced, CF Ltd)
| Riding style | Fork SAG |
|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 26 mm |
| Trail | 20 % = 30 mm |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 33 mm |
| Bike park | 20 % = 30 mm |
160 mm fork (CF Full Party)
| Riding style | Fork SAG |
|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 27 mm |
| Trail | 20 % = 32 mm |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 35 mm |
| Bike park | 20 % = 32 mm |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.

Air pressure in the fork
The sticker on the fork and the manufacturers’ setup charts give you a first pressure. Our calculator is more precise and suggests rebound too – always check the result via SAG.
