Overview of components
Fork
The Decoy CORE 2 MX comes factory-installed with the RockShox ZEB fork. This has a travel range of 170mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. To sum it all, when buying a bike, ensure that you look for a fork capable of decent travel.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is ROCKSHOX SUPER DELUXE SELECT, with a travel distance of 165mm. Bike rear shocks are a great way to increase comfort on the bike and give you more control when riding on technical trails. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Decoy CORE 2 MX model has 29″ aluminum wheels. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, 29″ wheels will make your e-bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
Stopping the bike when needed, it’s essential for your safety. This e-bike has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
Decoy CORE 2 MX comes in 5 sizes, that range from 154 cm – 200 cm (5.05 ft – 6.56 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
Dropper post
The YT Industries model is also equipped with a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
