Video: How to create the ultimate enduro e-bike
The Decoy and Capra have been long-standing collections within the YT Industries range. Ticking all the boxes for an electric-powered enduro-ready bike, the Decoy has always been the go-to for covering all off-road adventures. In contrast, the Capra allows the rider more freedom without the limitation of a battery. The brand's latest bike is a glimpse into the future, all the years of testing, research and learning are merged taking the good bits from the Decoy and acoustic Capra and the concoction is believed to be the ultimate enduro e-MTB by YT to date.

Last week, we shared all the info on the new Decoy SN and now, in YT’s latest edit, you can finally see the newest addition to the e_MTB lineup in more detail and action. The bike blends years of expertise in design, geometry, and kinematics, positioning itself between the Decoy's robustness and the Capra's agility and gravity capabilities. Yet, this bike isn't simply a hybrid—except for its wheel set-up—it's something unique that transcends traditional enduro, defying limits.
Frank Dörr, YT Industries Product Development Manager, talks us through the SN's standout features. Tingly raw action sounds and informative talk and, if anything, will leave you wanting more. The Decoy SN is a gravity-focused platform with a lightweight Fazua Ride 60 motor system, punchy 60nm of torque to power up those hills, and neat advanced internal cable routing for simplicity and a sleek look. A focus on rider geometry for better handling and a flip chip for quick frame adjustability.
