Expirience with the YT Capra Core 3 MX

Ludwig Döhl Whether in the Downhill World Cup or the Enduro World Series. Mullet bikes are all the rage. With the new Capra in the MX version YT feirt the trend to the large 29er front and small 27.5 rear wheel full off. The asymetrically designete frame makes the Capra Core 3 MX also an eye-catcher. The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with YT. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. On long tours, the comfortable seating position ensures a relaxed back. For friends of sending it on rowdy trails: the last argument is still the strongest, because the harmonious geometry and the grippy tires cause you to smile from top to bottom in the descent. We like: 5 years warranty on the frame!
