In short, our E-MTB range rips! While they share a name, each member of our DECOY family is unique. Choose the DECOY SN for its lightweight ride character and natural ride feel, the DECOY MX for full-support enduro riding, or the all-new DECOY for cutting-edge features, maximum power, and the latest in E-MTB technology.
No, the new DECOY is optimized and approved for a single crown fork with 180mm of travel. Using a fork with a longer axle-to-crown dimension would invalidate the warranty.

With a 4A charger, it will take 6.9 hrs to charge the 800Wh battery to 100% or 2.6 hrs to charge to 50%.
The new DECOY features an integrated battery for optimal trail performance and a sleek, clean look. A removable battery would add over a kilo in frame weight and compromise ride quality. Our custom battery mounts absorb torsional forces and eliminate noise – this is integration done right.
The integrated battery can still be removed, and servicing is simple. The mounts and cable routing offer mechanics quick, easy access, meaning the Bosch PowerTube battery is replaceable with minimal downtime.
Bosch offer a range calculator on their website, which outlines approximate range across the four power modes.
