Overview
The YT Industries Decoy Core 2 (€6,999) is the entry build of the Decoy: Bosch Performance Line CX (120 Nm) with 800 Wh, RockShox Zeb Select+ fork, RockShox Vivid Select+ shock, SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission and TRP EVO Pro brakes. Claimed weight is 23.2 kg (size S).
The Decoy is YT's carbon full-power gravity e-MTB, aimed at freeride, bike-park and enduro riding: 170 mm of V4L rear travel, a 180 mm single-crown fork and a dedicated mixed-wheel setup (29-inch front, 27.5-inch rear). Every build uses the Ultra-Modulus carbon frame and link.
Power comes from the Bosch Performance Line CX (listed at 120 Nm and 750 W peak) with an integrated 800 Wh PowerTube battery, Kiox 400C display and wireless Mini Remote. A flip chip switches between REGULAR and LOW geometry; YT lists a claimed 23.2 kg (size S) for each of the three builds.
