YT’s dedicated trail bike aims to foster efficiency and speed climbing while maintaining its shred-everything DNA on the way back down.

Nimble handling and fast acceleration can be a blast, but its limits lie on steeper tracks
Fast and fun on the right tracks, the Izzo begs for another lap
Compromised tyres and brakes hold it back
Rear suspension not ideal on gnarlier terrain

The YT Izzo Core 2 offers exceptional value for the money, and the only carbon-framed test bikes at this year's Value Field Test.
Excellent climbing performance
Light and lively; well suited for rolling terrain
Very good parts spec for the price
Tight clearance around shock air valve limits pump choices

The YT IZZO CORE 3 is a trail bike that commands your attention. Visually striking with clean lines, a considerate build spec and a geometry that can man-handle some pretty gruelling terrain, the IZZO CORE 3 is impressive, to say the least. Held back by a less than ideal tyre choice and a lacklustre own-brand dropper post, it's difficult to fault this well-executed and playful trail bike. Why are mountain bike cranks so long? The best cycling water bottles that money can buy. Endura launch its first MTB shoe range for 2022.

Experts Only! The IZZO-BLAZE checks out of YT's "Downhill clinic" with an extra centimetre of travel, grippier tires and a more robust spec. But not everyone will benefit from the additional reserves on the trail. Here’s why.
Damn fast uphill
Super poppy and direct
Great value for money
Demanding downhill
Paint worn on the seat and chainstays
