Ghost Asket Advanced 2027 – Built for Bigger Adventures

The Ghost Asket Advanced takes everything we love about the standard Asket and turns it up a notch. Featuring Shimano's latest GRX 12-speed groupset, premium DT Swiss wheels, and a huge gear range, this is a gravel bike designed for riders who want to explore further, climb steeper, and carry more kit without compromise.

Finished in the stunning Rustic Ember / Saffron Sunset matt colourway, the Asket Advanced combines rugged adventure capability with premium performance. Whether you're tackling long gravel rides, bikepacking expeditions, winter training, or all-day mixed terrain adventures, this bike is built to handle it all.

The lightweight aluminium frame is paired with a full carbon fork, providing excellent comfort, precise handling, and durability. One feature we particularly appreciate is the practical cable routing. Unlike many modern bikes, the cables do not pass through the headset, making servicing, maintenance, and future upgrades significantly easier and more cost-effective over the bike's lifetime.

The frame includes extensive mounting points for bikepacking bags, luggage, additional bottle cages, racks, and mudguards, making it an ideal choice for adventure riding and multi-day trips.

Premium Shimano GRX 12-Speed

The Asket Advanced features Shimano's latest gravel-specific GRX groupset, including:

• Shimano GRX RX820 hydraulic disc brakes

• Shimano GRX RX820 shifters

• Shimano GRX RX822 Shadow+ rear derailleur

• Shimano GRX RX820 Hollowtech II crankset

• Shimano XT 10-51T cassette

The massive 10-51T cassette provides exceptional climbing gears for steep off-road adventures while still offering plenty of top-end speed for fast road sections.

DT Swiss Wheelset

Unlike many bikes at this price point, the Asket Advanced comes equipped with a genuine DT Swiss G1800 Spline wheelset, providing outstanding reliability, tubeless compatibility, and proven performance for serious gravel riding.

The Bicycle Rooms Difference

This bike is available as a special order item, typically arriving with us in approximately 2 working days.

As an independent bike shop, we offer a level of personal service that simply isn't available from online retailers. Every bike can be professionally assembled and tailored to suit you before delivery. If you already have bike fit measurements, we'll happily build the bike to those exact figures, or replicate the fit from another bike you already ride comfortably.

We also offer:

• Free personal delivery within 50 miles of Stratford-upon-Avon

• UK-wide shipping available

• Professional bike fitting and setup

• Custom stem, handlebar and contact point advice

• Ongoing workshop support and aftercare

For riders looking for the ultimate upgrade, we can also fit one of our handbuilt SCR Carbon Wheelsets, reducing weight and further improving acceleration, comfort, and performance.

Why We Like It

The Asket Advanced hits a sweet spot that many gravel bikes miss. You get Shimano's latest GRX 12-speed technology, a superb DT Swiss wheelset, huge gear range, practical bikepacking features, and maintenance-friendly design, all wrapped up in a bike that's equally happy exploring remote gravel tracks as it is covering big miles on the road.

If you're looking for one gravel bike to do everything, the Ghost Asket Advanced is hard to beat.
