The YT Jeffsy Mk3 Core 4 is a capable all-mountain bike which, thanks to its spec, has a bias towards descending but is equally able to climb.

YT Industries Jeffsy Mk3 Core 4 mountain bike review

Jul 2024

The YT Jeffsy Mk3 Core 4 is a capable all-mountain bike which, thanks to its spec, has a bias towards descending but is equally able to climb. While the spec is hard to argue with and the value for money is excellent, it's worth paying attention to the frame sizing and geometry to get the ride you want. The bike could be improved further with a longer dropper post and a slacker head angle but YT has done a good job continuing to polish the already excellent Jeffsy.
