Love the idea rob but unfortunately that display and controller is so cheap and crap for a bike that’s costing £8500 needs more wow / bling The DJI bike you tested the other day blows this out the water 110nm and an 800watt battery even the standard Shimano is better I love my decoy but unfortunately yt have not convinced me to buy a new and improved decoy.

I have not seen any footage or test of the Amflow bike. The DJI motor has interesting specs, but we neither know how it holds up nor do we know how the bike works on trails. so far it's the definition of a "Paper-Tiger", looking stron and huge on paper without any connection to the real life.
@VINLAND_777Ай бұрын
While I love the look and geometry of the bike, I personally think it comes to late to the market. This especially after the latest introductions of the newest light full power motors and tech. But if others like it and look especially for that type of bike = perfect.

That DJI motor is really interesting! But it is - with the smaller 600 wh battery - a bit over a kilo heavier than the fazua system. So all the weight savings of the DJI bike plus aprox 1 kg are due to lighter parts and a lighter frame which - if you ride hard - you don't want. I have a light emtb at 18,5 kg and I whish it was a kg heavier in exchange for a stiffer frame 😅

105Nm 800W.... 120Nm / 1000W short duration boost!... Not 160Nm !?? And a 36 Fork is 250 gr lighter, AND no coil (500gramm lighter at least!)

If after more then 4 years of decoy (think it was launched in 2019 or such) they waited with current lineup for another year they could have implemented a new bike with a system up to date. This bike, with fazua motor and this weight is already old before launching it. I see if the have launched this with zf or even better dji it could have been one of the most advanced and desiderable bike in the market. Like this, with the current price and the low relabilty and poor implementation of fazua system is something that is not so much appealing

I have a 2020 Decoy. I ws excited when I saw this announcement, but im totally underwhelmed. This is equivalent to the Santa Cruz fazua powered emtb that came out nearly two years ago. We're now getting full powered motors (ZF being the most exciting) at 20kg bike weights PLUS we are getting gear boxes. Whilst I love my current decoy, when I come to replace it in a acouple of years time I will be spending 7-9 k on something that is full powered, at 20kg with a gear box Most of us want to ride further and faster and longer. The Pinion gearbox is a proper disruptor to the market. The ZF motor is not quite as disruptive, but it's close. The first direct to market brand that pairs these two innovations will clean up. My money will stay in the bank...come on YT get with the game!

This looks like a direct competitor with the Transition Relay, but not thought out as well. The fixed battery gives the bike a more sleek look, but the removable battery makes the Relay much more practical. The ability to carry 2 batteries to the trails makes the SL bikes much more usable and gives the rider the option to keep it in turbo without worrying about running out of power too quickly. The Relay can be run as a mullet or full 29r. The Relay can be run 160/160,170/170 or a combination of the two travel lengths. The carbon Relay is $1000 cheaper than the cheapest option on the YT, and the Alloy Relay is $3000 cheaper than the cheapest YT option. It seems to me like YT just decided to make a more expensive and less useful version of the Relay.

I ride it in mostly the medium setting (river) and only go in turbo (rocket) on really steep climbs and only after I been ridding a couple of hours.

The Fazua system on my heckler left me stranded in the woods twice. Once with no power, which was fine i pedaled out like any other bike. And another time 4 miles deep down in the middle of no where when the gears or clutch in the motor broke. That sucked because i couldnt even spin the pedals, nothing would engage the wheel and drivetrain. On top of those two events with the motor, the ring controller broke on my Heckler twice, both from debris getting stuck in there.... Im not impressed with that bike mainly beacuse of the motor system. Power and range may be competitive, but reliablity and month long wait times for warranty claims are rubbish.
