Expirience with the YT Capra Shred

Ludwig Döhl The Capra is available in all imaginable wheel options. The Capra Shred rolls on 27.5 tires and wants to rip it up on single trails. We have checked all geometry measures and come to the following conclusion: the Capra Shred is a very balanced customer. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the YT Capra Shred suite the taste of most bikers. YT is installing only absolutely high-quality shifting components. A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 5 years warranty YT sets the bar high!
