Hi All

looking at the YT Decoy vs Propain Ekano 165

Anyone have any experience of either or either company

https://www.yt-industries.com/uk/detail/index/sArt...
https://www.propain-bikes.com/bike-configurator/co...

Leaning towards the Propain, on the basis of:
- Marginally cheaper now that the YT Base not available
- Alloy main triangle more robust against rock drops vs carbon
- Standard Shimano battery – easier to replace / upgrade in the future
- Can upgrade the kit to lyric, airshock, and MT7 brakes

But difficult to find reviews on the Propain, at least I’ve spoken to an owner of a YT and ridden one 100yrds …
