I was told June/July for the uk ?? but will be looking at the giant now as priced the same
Decathlon stilus is coming back
- Thread starter Racoon21
- Start date
If that's the case I will have time to buy more shiny bits for my own Stilus before they arrive and my missus gets the card out for her new one ?.
Stilus has been listed on UK Decathlon website for £3499!! Honestly, this is the most expensive in Europe and I don't think it's worth it anymore. You can buy lots of ebikes for this price with comparable equipment. V1 was £2799 and it was a bargain.
Looks like there are now 4 sizes and I suspect the XL is actually an XL
25% price increase though. Now includes bigger battery (worth £200 at a guess).
Ooh £500 out.

Store guy said August/Sept. "new arrival" graphic on site obviously has another meaning in Decathlon speak.
Question;
Is Boris Johnson their PR advertising guru? Cos It's all a bit like "You can go abroad but you cant/you can buy the Stilis but you can't". ?
It was like that last year. My advice is sign up for stock alerts & check the website daily. 11pm worked well, almost as if their web admin runs an automated batch file update overnight.
And if you do get one, ditch the fork & change the maxles sharpish.

Nope I’ve the app for decathlon and I ring my nearest 1 which is pool next year now they think sign up for email when they get some in ??? Good luck
Cardiff says nothing on screens till after Christmas due to stock of all other bikes and products being focused on as they actially know/have vision and delivery dates from those suppliers.
Thing is, when they do appear, they they probably sit forever, somewhere on the M25 while being held up by a climate activist sitting in the middle lane ?

not bad was only a week delay...so the S and XL are up. expect to see some more over the weekend but the delivery is the whole of europe so only so many models will be online then its the 7 week wait
What’s wrong with the Maxles? What do you change them to?
Yes. Perfectly capable full sus trail bike. Some of the componentry is compromised & you will want to change, so the cost doesn't end at £3499.
Yes, massive fan since buying last year. Been waiting for one for the missus for 6 months and pulled the trigger on another model last week at a lbs, and now there's a few stilus hanging around on the site
. Trouble is the competition is closer since the price hike. Do a personal wish/ checklist with and without upgrades. Mines pretty stock apart from bars and peddles tyres, so for me at th 2700 price it has been a steal. Today's Cubes and the such may be the reason they haven't disappeared off the site as quick as before.
Hi all, if I manage to bag an XL (won’t believe it till it arrives in a few weeks) then I will have a 2020 Large to sell. It’s done 700 genuine miles (will provide the Bosch service printouts). Has been *upgraded to a Kiox display with Cube offset mount*, dry garaged, Heli-taped all over, SW updated, converted to fit 625w bty, the 500w it will come with has the adapter. I can sell you a spare 500w or 625w at a tasty discount too (I’m a Bosch dealer). Rear shock always booted, no scratches on stanchions. Would be looking at £2700 for it recognising the value of upgrades. Ping me if interested, otherwise it’ll go on eBay.
Interested in a 625 batt soon, message me with what you can do.
Always wondered why there isn't an exchange/swap over system run by Bosch, seems sensible way to recycle and allow an upgrade without the massive cost.
BTW, mines an XL and is spot on, even though I shoudve been an L. Let me know.

New Stilus variant ......29" Electric Mountain Bike E-ST Stilus STILUS - Decathlon
V2 XL arrived this morning. Changes noted from V1:
Dropper is now a Tranz-X 170mm, so longer than the 120mm KS - but has the shitty above-the-bar lever, not the nice under-the bar paddle. That'll have to go. The Tranz-X doesn't suffer from the pull-up issue when you have it dropped, forget and try to lift the bike by the saddle.
That extra 50mm drop is huge - will make a big difference in the tech stuff
Saddle now comes with an ergonomic cut-out. Won't be trying it as have a Madison Flux ready to go.
The Smart Sams are the tube-only type, not tubeless. You've been warned
Comes with an FSA chainguide. Not that I've ever dropped a chain, but that's nice
The clutch on the Swiss-Cheese Eagle SX mech is non-existent. Maybe they had loads of complaints of dropped chains, and to aviod using an NX mech they added the chainguide.
Oh, and it came with the brake levers swapped - moto-style! beware UK buyers.
Anyway, for the money and the 625W battery, happy with it. Already sold my V1 Large to a mate. Kiox, 155 Miranda cranks, Mudhuggers and 2.8" Minion DHR II's on the way. Planning to add at some stage a Lyrik 29'er with PUSH spring. Le Grande Mullet!
