I managed to find the issue. It’s the battery. A friend of a friend got a decoy and I tried his battery and the bike works fine. Put my battery in his bike and same issue. I’ll ring YT tomorrow and hopefully they can send out a new battery. I’m going to make a gasket like yours and put tape over...
I was thinking about trying to find someone else close by to try swapping parts out. I have booked it into onit cycles in porthcawl on Tuesday so hopefully they should be able to diagnose and sort it. They are an official shimano service centre. If they have no luck I might take you up on the...
I’ve got the decoy 29 base which doesn’t have di2. There is a cable in there ready for di2 but it’s not connected to the display. It is connected to the motor and I did wonder if it was causing any issues and thought about disconnecting it but didn’t. Maybe that’s worth a try. The only other...
I dropped the motor and inspected the cables. Cleaned replaced, and rebuilt. Thought I had sorted it for a moment as the screen did not come on as soon as I inserted battery like before. Problem is now I can’t get the screen to come on at all. Power going to switch though. Anyone got an...
Hi butt, I’ve checked all the cables, cleaned and inspected them but I’m still having no joy. Now instead of the steps screen freezing on start up I can’t get it on at all. Dropped motor and inspected cables. Power going to switch. Just wondering if you had any other ideas I could try. I’m just...
Same thoughts as me exactly. The bike is very capable and with better suspension will be a weapon I think. Going to put 38 on the front at 160 and either x2 or dhx2 on the back. Set of rental carbon bars and maybe upgrade the hubs and I think it will be good for pretty much anything
They have offered to get it collected via courier but they said they may be able to suggest something I can do first. I really don't want to part with the bike as I have literally only just had it. I might just drop it to them as soon as I can to save time and I really don't want to pack the...
Spoke to the guys at the mill today and they are going to collect the bike. I’m sure it will be far better for people in the Uk now the mill is there rather than dealing with Germany
Thanks for the info
Thanks for the info mate. I think I’m going to go 38’s at 160 and dhx2 at the same stroke length as the stock shock. Personally I feel the front end is a little low as stock anyway so I would like to raise it up a bit. In stock trim the 29 has a razor sharp front feeling but...
I just got the 29er but really wanted the mullet. I think the 29er is good for everything but I think the mullet would be too. Don't think you will go far wrong with either although be careful washing the bike as they do have problems with water getting into the connections causing the Shimano...
What travel would you put the 38’s at ? 160? Would you stick with rear travel as it is or would you consider bumping it up to 62.5? I’m asking because I have the base and am thinking about the same suspension upgrades
Thanks Mate. I think this is exactly the same problem. I did see a bit of water near the top battery connector. Dried it all out with a hairdryer but still nothing. Dropping the motor out might have to be the next step
Thanks a lot. Yeah I’ll give them a call tomorrow. Going to try and leave the battery out for a while and see if that does anything. After googling the problem it seems like lots of people have had the same problem which is disappointing. A few suggest it could be a communication problem between...
Took delivery of a decoy 29 on Wednesday. Built it on Thursday and have ridden it twice on 2 short test rides. Tried to turn it on today to go out and the shimano steps screen freezes on boot up and will not turn on or off.
The only way to get the bike off again is to remove the battery but...
