It's a weird thing !


Bosch Performance line motor and primitive spec's all round. Sort of a Full Suspension Fireroad bike ..

I guess if you want a "cheap" FS entry level EMTB it's an option.

I thought by now Decathlon would have their own brand FS EMTB available.

Even by the standards of a Stilus, that thing is underspecced. Nice colour though.

If I ended up with one, Ebay would be seeing the fork, shock, brakes, tyres & probably a few other bits like the maxles, headset, grips & saddle. In other words, I'd keep the frame, motor & bars. And the wheels. Maybe.

I would add chainstays to your list ?
In all seriousness - Stilus AM has them already long (485) but this one has them at 515 mm (!!!)
I understand that this is related to a different (older generation) Bosch motor, but come on...

There are now 2 versions of the Stilus. The top one has Rockshox 160mm travel front, 150mm rear. 4 piston sram brakes. Dropper post and latest Bosch motor 85nm with the 625 battery but the price is £3499. Looks great value considering the spec.
@Rob Rides EMTB did a great review of the old Stilus. Wonder how the performance of the old bike would compare with this new beefed up version head to head.

Pretty sure the main differences between Mine, the 2020 version & this is shorter cranks, bigger battery & a slight brake upgrade. I've done those upgrades to mine & changed the fork for a Lyrik & without doubt, the biggest improvement in feel & kinematics came from ditching the RS 35., though I appreciate we're discussing the poverty Stilus, so I'm probably comparing apples with oranges on this thread.

The 2020 came with the Bosch CX 85, Guide RE 4 pots & a KS dropper anyway. Both get long chainstays & short reach which is a take it or leave it thing. Personally, most of my riding is on the rolling south downs, so I like the capable climbing & don't really feel the disadvantages of long chainstays in the twisty bits as there aren't that many on my locals anyway.
