    Decoy pro Race 2019 Öhlins shock, Fox 36 E-fork

    I'd believe Steve. Every time I have called or emailed them, they give great advice and are willing to help.

    Levo Gen 2 Which Coil Shocks Are Supported on Turbo Levo?

    You already pay a premium for Spec and now you have to pay an additional premium if you want to go coil. My "light" ebike is going to be an Orbea.

    Cassette Replacement Options - Garbaruk, E13 or SRAM

    go with #1 (Sunrace) don't to #5. The shimano 11-46 has too big a jump from 37 to 46

    Vittoria Airlines — no pump/tubes, really?

    You have to choose if it's worth the risk to your rim. I personally don't like to have my ride ruined. So, I carry the spares. You can strap the tube to your frame if you don't want to carry it. Specialized has the SWAT set up for the tube,CO2 and levers if you want to go that way.

    Levo Gen 2 Not heard this one before.

    While your motor may sound fine, they may see something that is a known issue. I'd take them up on the motor if the install time is short. Hopefully you'll get the updated motor without issues.

    E-bike flood?

    Yeah, it's out of date so much it would be like showing up to the trail with rim brakes. I will help. I give you half of what you paid and I'll cover shipping. :)

    Crazy creaking.. defective frame or just yt crap quality?

    Put a layer of plummers pipe dope (not the putty) or wrap the taper washer with a little bit of plumers teflon tape. This technique works great to remove creaks from the BB area of bikes.

    Vittoria Airlines — no pump/tubes, really?

    I have ridden mine to a stop when I got a branch through my tire before a rock garden. I was able to stop and get to a flat spot. Riding with no air was painfully slow. It will likely ruin the tire too. The tread will be stretched in weird ways. Instead of riding out, carry a tube and a...

    Michelin E-Wild 2.8 or 2.6 on new YT Decoy Elite?

    One of these days I will try this 2.6 fun, but I don't know how the bike will handle in the high geo positon. I like the low. Easy to manual, jumping, and just ripping through a rocky line going straight and letting off the brakes.

    What’s they longest ride you’ve done on your Decoy?

    Here's mine: 30.5 miles and 5147 ft on the ascent. This did require continual battery management and smart use of the motor. There really was very little that needed boost mode. Eco mode was set to high Trail mode was set to low with torque limited to 50 nm. Boost mode was set to low with...

    Post Up your Decoy Upgrades with Reviews

    About ride wrap. How did they handle the weld bumps in seat and chain stays? I can't really tell by the pics and RideWrap seems to be ignoring my info requests.

    Code RSC Brakes

    What this guy said. Bleed them. Then, do the piston rebalancing act shown here. look at 5:30 in to skip the intro and tools needed. SRAM ARE HIGH MAINTENANCE !!!!! When I feel inspired, I may switch to TRP for the great modulation and little maintenance

    StUnlocker and Decoy battery health. Does it work on the free addition?

    It must be something with the SMP battery.

    StUnlocker and Decoy battery health. Does it work on the free addition?

    I've had my Decoy since Jan 2020. I've put 1500+ miles on it. In April (I think) I used StUnlocker to check things and it said battery health at 99% (0 Cycles). I thought with limited daylight, winter weather and other factors I had not ridden that much. Fast forward to Sept 1st. It...

    Decoy pro Race 2019 Öhlins shock, Fox 36 E-fork

    Fox "decided" to do a 36 with thicker parts and use 34 internals. They say it's better, but I could not tell. It also makes any kind of upgrade much more tricky.
