The YT Decoy Electric Mountain Bike Quacks Like a Duck [eMTB Review]

The YT Decoy is an electric, all-mountain bike with 150/145mm of travel front and rear. YT uses their Virtual 4 Link (V4L) suspension design on the Decoy, which is claimed to offer high anti-squat performance, in addition to a sensitive top end and “plenty of end-stroke progressivity.” Does it deliver? We tested it to find out. Overall the geometry on the YT Decoy 29 frame is about what one would expect for a trail / all-mountain bike in 2021. The Core 4 build tested is the top end for Decoy 29er builds in the US, and retails for $7,499. PROS - Incredibly capable suspension platform for riding fast and rough - Thoughtfully designed and constructed - Great component selection for the price CONS - Not a great choice for slow speed, technical trails - Steering feels plow-like - Still looks and sounds like an e-bike #ytindustries #ytdecoy #EMTB #bikereview ----- Follow Singletracks: On the Web: ​​​​
