    Fair! I think I’ve set my mind on the 27 now. It’s just deciding between race with the Zebs and rear coil, or paying extra for the blingy signature with the Fox 38’s. I can’t stand code R’s which the race has but they can always be changed. Availability on both bikes is June 2021. Madness.

    Love it. Are you happy with your choice of the 29er? I’m eyeing up a 27 signature (would be happy with a race too) but can’t help but keep considering a 29. I didn’t quite gel with my Decoy 29 so that might have answered my own question, although being an XL it felt too big for me in any case!

    2021 Husqvarna Extreme Cross

    Looks like a beast. Won’t be coming to the UK any time soon though.. which is bizarre and disappointing.

    Bike racks

    If you can, but as the bike doesn’t physically come into contact with the car it’s fine to just install as it is If it’s dirty.

    YT Decoy 29 - Tyres

    so far I’d say the Eddy is the perfect all-rounder on almost all surfaces. Its Pretty much a downhill casing so it’s heavy but takes a battering, and the tread is almost identical to the Magic Mary’s which were similar to typical motorcross Tyres for grip in mud and soft stuff. It does drag...

    Bike racks

    I was in a similar situation.. I have no rails or bars on my car. Solution : So far It’s been solid and I’ve tested it up to 70mph with no drama at all.

    Roof rack transportation options

    It looks like it does have fix points, but looking at the cost of rails, and then a rack of some form it quickly added up. So my resolution turned up today, and fitted it up just for a trial fit (pardon my garage int he background, my garden is having some work done so its a total mess!)...

    Roof rack transportation options

    Its a W213 Mercedes-AMG E63s Saloon. (Or Sedan, if you're not from the UK!)

    Roof rack transportation options

    Bumping a pretty old thread so apologies! My car has no option for a tow bar due to the rear diffuser, and the roof racks are out of the question due a glass roof. The only option i can really see is using a Sea Sucker Bomber. Its a 3 bike carrier, but i would be using it for two EMTBs at...

    Decoy 29er Owners, sizing concerns

    ..Me too. Im 6ft and sized 'up' to an XL following the sizing guide on the YT site. 4 months later with a big mix of riding (im not an expert at anything!) and i wished i had an L instead. On more technical, twisty and slower trails, the XL Decoy 29 feels like the Titanic. I certainly dont...

    YT Decoy Shimano Steps E8000 Speed Sensor Wire

    All, thanks for your input. We dropped the motor and removed the speed sensor cable. I purchased the SM-DUE10 sensor as suggested above, but it turns out its actually a DUE11 cable thats used on these (for future ref) as the sensor is slightly different. I managed to salvage the existing cable...

    YT Decoy Shimano Steps E8000 Speed Sensor Wire

    Hi All had a bit of a nightmare tonight, long story short my pedal caught the speed sensor cable which was very slack as the clip h holding the cable had come off the inside of the swing arm. Ive spilt the cable in half just before it enters the frame. It all powers on fine, but the WO11...
