    New Decoy Uncaged

    I think it depends where you are. They have a location in the UK now. All my warranty stuff was suspension, so I was able to just take it off and send to Silverfish/Fix in the UK.

    New Decoy Uncaged

    I rode a medium. On paper it was very small. My Privateer was 30mm longer! In reality, the bike handled amazingly and really made me reconsider how much stock I put into a geo chart. You're absolutely right, the only way to really know is to ride one. For reference, I live in The Tweed...

    New Decoy Uncaged

    Yes you need the YT bottle, which is fine but expensive. I had the previous Shred which is pretty similar. Still one of the most fun bikes I've ridden. Every fox component on it shat the bed, the brakes were absolutely useless (Code Rs) but amazingly, the motor is still going strong...

    Angle set and/or 180mm fork on Decoy

    Remember that this will also reduce the reach a bit and the Decoy is not the longest bike to start with. Still ways around it though.

    Decoy XL/XXL geo

    You can slam a 180mm OneUp dropper on a Medium Decoy. So you could easily run a 210 on an XL I am sure. The seat tube is 50mm longer and the dropper is only 30mm bigger.

    Cooler for YT Decoy Charger

    Mine is wall mounted. Maybe they helps it stay cooler. 🤷

    Cooler for YT Decoy Charger

    Not aware of mine getting hot. I'll have to check next time it's charging!

    My Decoy Leaning on Stuff

    Conditions here are all time prime. I absolutely love this bike!

    Decoy Uncaged 9 170mm Rear Travel?

    Can't be the shock as the length and stroke are the same. I think either the linkage is different or it's a typo, or it was 170 all along!

    Decoy Shred

    It is absolutely ridiculous. Guess they know that nothing else will fit!

    Decoy Shred

    😭 I really wish there was a better alternative. However, my e-bike rides are from my door, so I prefer to carry the absolute minimum and generally I don't ride the e-bike more than 2 hours, so I don't need too much water. I'm just going to buy it and hopefully it's not junk!

    Decoy Shred

    Did some experimenting with a couple of different cages. Unfortunately I don't think any regular diameter cage will fit under the coil. Think I will just buy the stupid YT one.

    Decoy Shred

    Dhx2 back from fixed. Fixed under warranty no questions asked. Very happy to have it back, I love this bike! Took 2 of the three tokens out of the fork and it's so much better now for the stuff I ride.

    Decoy Shred

    Thanks! I'll measure it up and see if it'll work. Bike is off the road now anyway as DHX2 has died and been sent to Fox for warranty.

    Decoy Shred

    Think the DHX2 has shat the bed :cry:

    Decoy Shred

    Has anyone found an alternative to the Thirstmaster 2000 that will fit the Decoy? I just object to 50euro for an effing bottle!

    Decoy Shred

    So, having now got properly used to this bike, something a bit odd (to my mind) has happened. Despite being 40mm shorter in reach, having less fancy suspension and being almost 10kg heavier, I am within 10% of my best times. What does this mean? Geometry is a lie? Weight doesn't matter? I...

    Decoy Shred - Brake Swap to Saints

    This is very helpful stuff as I have been pretty disappointed with the Code Rs. Recently got the Shred and a Privateer 161, both came with Code R. Both needed bled on arrival and even after several bleeds (including by professionals!) they still seem inconsistent, sometimes pulling to the bar...

    Decoy Shred

    I have a Shred and went with Matt. I think it looks great.
