E-Riot
Origin
Ghost launched the E-Riot in 2019 by transplanting their TractionLink trail suspension into an e-MTB platform — the same kinematics that make the Riot Trail work so well on rough descents, now amplified by a Bosch motor for brutal climbs. The current carbon CF generation runs Bosch's latest Performance CX motor (the 'quieter' cooling-fin version) with 800 Wh of battery, Fox Factory suspension, and a mullet wheel setup. Ghost engineered a high bottom bracket and lowered top tube to keep motor ground clearance and rider fit optimised for big-hit enduro.
Specifications
- Frame
- Carbon main frame and rear triangle (CF builds). TractionLink kinematics. Head angle 64°. Lowered top tube, raised BB for motor ground clearance. Max rider weight 150 kg.
- Drivetrain
- 1×12 Shimano XT or SRAM Eagle (build-dependent). Integrated dropper post standard on CF builds.
- Brakes
- 4-piston hydraulic disc, 200/200 mm rotors (top builds). Shimano XT or SRAM Code on upper variants.
- Wheels
- Mullet setup: 29" front / 27.5" rear. Tubeless-ready; carbon rims on E-Riot LTD.
The verdict
- Bosch Performance CX 85 Nm + 800 Wh is a proven, reliable powertrain with good range
- TractionLink suspension gives genuine enduro performance; the motor adds range, not compromises
- Mullet wheel setup and 64° head angle give class-competitive geometry
- Carbon CF builds are expensive; AL builds are heavier and use lower-tier suspension
- 170/160 mm travel makes it an enduro specialist — not a lightweight everyday e-MTB
- Bosch Kiox 300 is functional but lacks the polish of newer displays from some competitors
