For This Bike
Dec 2020
This is a surprisingly spritely platform and you might even wonder if you're on smaller wheels...

YT designed the YT Decoy CF to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing, to look like a conventional bike by disguising battery in the down tube. Hence the name Decoy.
Good geometry and sizing, and the mullet wheel size concept works well. The suspension feels great, supple and supportive. And naturally, the price for the kit is good.
The front end is too high and you need a new bar to lower it. The motor sounds like a whistling kettle. Di2 specced Pro Race version seems unnecessary.
