I managed to pick this up recently and it had only done 20 miles and had slight marks on the handlebars (probably from transit)

Cracking Buy, bargain of the century.

Thanks Ken, I’m so chuffed with it

The pic shown is the Stilus Ser1 the same as mine bought online nearly 2 years ago for £2779 during difficult covid times. Decathlon released stock at midnight each night and it was gone in minutes. It has now covered almost 3,500 trouble free miles, if you look on this site I have posted pics of various mods. Best buy I ever made!

Can I ask if anyone know the shock length on the Stilus, is it 205 x 65? Thanks

Yep, correct

 

[Tallguy888]

Yep, correct

Many thanks, see a coil shock on eBay and considering it

 

[Tallguy888]

One thing that makes no sense but is probably easy to work out is what poundage spring to get for the shock.

 

[Jammybastard]

Very nice decals

6months of ownership now and still loving it

This is the new Stilus V3 29er. Price €3999.
What do you all think of this price/value ratio for new Stilus? I am interesting to buy one, once they will be available. I really like the design. But interesting if its still the best budget emtb on the market.

€399.00 more for a change of paint colour and wheel size sorry but no I’d go else where and thinking of sending my v2 back as they sent me the wrong size and the part’s on it are breaking and it only 6 months old

What parts are braking? What mileage? I think its normal to replace some parts in the long way. For me most important the frame strength, motor and fork. Other parts can be replaced without big investment. I am also interesting in Husqvarna Mountain Cross 5, but i saw a few posts with cracked frame. I am kost worried about frame cracks.

Yes the price could be lower for Stilus V3, but cannot find anything better for €4000 right now.

The Frame and bearings on rear end of my Stilus V1 have been really strong, i have only replaced the lower swing arm bearing at 3800 miles. I know people who's rear bearing have needed replacing at less that a 1000 miles on big brand E bikes.

Bosch Motor update

had original motor replaced at 2800 miles on warranty terminal error code, now replacement motor has terminal fault after a 1000 miles, LBS is talking with Bosch now warranty runs out in july 2022.

TBH you are right about the axles changed mine very early on, pedals that come with bikes are are always cheapo and need replacing, bars and stem were ok . (i did change but that was personal choice not due to failure of parts)

 

[stonedwolf]

The v2 pedals and seat are horrible, rest is fine for what it is.

The tyres, SMART SAM, they're actually pretty okay for the road, gravel, fire track, light Blue trails; not great in softer mud though.

Surly you get new 2 year warranty when they replace motor

 

[Lordy71]

No Bosch stopped giving warranty on replacement motors . 2 years from new on motor now..

Hi Everyone.

Does anyone know how Stilus V1 XL compares to V2 XL model? I know the V2 is bigger, but what is an actual cm difference in reach? Size charts don't show reach.

I'm trying to see, if it's worth purchasing V2 XL frame and fit it on my V1.

You might be able to buy my entire V2 XL at a good price so I can reduce to a Large?

Is there a reason you want to hybrid the two? Isn't V1 29" wheels whilst V2 is 27.5"?

Why wouldn't you keep the V2 and sell the V1?

Thing is my V2 XL is a fantastic ride for me, beautiful position, but I can only put about 2 inches of extra height via the dropper. That's all the play I have. I don't know if I have the right model for me, if a smaller bike but the seat stem up more is better. I mean, I don't know if basically I'm misleading myself about what I really need. Perhaps a smaller-frame clockwork bike for one type of riding, my big beautiful monster truck or being a high-speed passenger on!

I was looking to buy the V2 frame itself from Decathlon, but they don't sell it - I was advised that yesterday. My V1 is heavily modified all around with 29" wheels, changing the frame was the most cost effective for me. I think I'll get V3 and swap things around, making my V1 vanilla ready for eBay.

Nice, if this is an XL what is the wheelbase, could you please measure it? The whole size chart is missing from the website, I hope the V3 is based off the V2 frame and XL is actually properly XL, not like with V1.
