What's the YT Decoy 29 like to live with long-term? We get to the bottom of that—and the bottom of the descents, quickly.

YT might be replacing the Elite with the Core, but the original is still the proven, top-value option from the online MTB specialists
Compact agility and serious stiffness
Premium Fox Factory suspension
Awesome Crankbrothers carbon wheels
Benchmark Maxxis treads
Killer overall kit value
Proven, knock-free Shimano motor
Shortness reduces stability
Cramped when climbing
Older motor
Smaller battery than most
Relatively fragile tires
Long seat tubes remove ‘sizing up’ option

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

"EMTBs are for old farts." At the very latest since YT and COMMENCAL have started offering more aggressive, trail-oriented eMTBs in their portfolios did our junior testers start putting their prejudices to one side. In an exciting head to head comparison, they put the COMMENCAL META POWER 29 Essential and YT DECOY Comp through their paces.

The coil-sprung Shred Series bikes from YT include a high-end aluminum Capra 29 and an enduro-ready Decoy e-mountain bike.

The YT Decoy Pro 29 sports a full carbon frame. That means it looks sleek as hell, with loads of great touches that make the bike really sing.
Great suspension, and sorted geometry via the the flip-chip that gives the bike two distinct personalities.
Shimano motor isn’t the best, and the new Thirstmaster bottle is tricky to get to.
