The new Capra is well spec'd for the price, and it turns out it's pretty quick, too.
Middle of the road geometry
Fast in the right hands
The best value bike on test
Provides a supportive and poppy feel
Middle of the road geometry
Long(ish) seat-tube combined with short dropper
Its suspension is not as supple as others

YT Capra 29 Core 4 is 165mm enduro bike with 170mm fork, slack geometry, and bottle-ready full carbon frame. And there's somewhere to stash a water bottle.
Improved suspension characteristics for downhill, and better pedalling position for uphill. The bike feels more comfortable, planted and also faster than the old 29in bike. The water bottle is a nice bonus.
The price has crept up £1,150.

The new YT Capra is more than just a geometry update. It's new carbon, mixed wheel sizes, and a pre-order system so you can get in line.

Could be a bit roomier and the seat angle could be steeper, but still incredibly capable and masses of fun
Low-slung, very planted suspension
Reassuringly rock-solid when the terrain gets demanding
Not the flashiest kit for the cash but everything works well
Seat angle could do with being steeper
A touch more reach wouldn’t go amiss

YT Blaze models introduce top-end Deluxe Ultimate RockShox suspension to the Izzo trail bike, Jeffsy all-mountain bike and Capra enduro bike
Oct 2020 · Christoph Bayer
The YT CAPRA has been on the market for several years but the bike is far from outdated, as our test proves. The new flagship Elite model has almost everything a racer needs. How will it fare on our racetrack?
Balanced, confident handling
Plush, defined suspension
Almost race-ready at a fair price
No bottle cage bosses
Weak tires and short dropper post
Sluggish on the climbs and when accelerating
