Cons

The Capra Shred is a bike that’s easy to just jump on and ride and feels instantly at home being carved from turn-to-turn or launched skywards in the bikepark.

2022 YT CAPRA Core 4 review

Mar 2022

The distinguished YT CAPRA Core 4 tops the Core range. As such, it’s dripping with top-end kit to deliver an exciting and capable ride that’ll have bikes twice its price quaking in their boots. However, it doesn’t quite have the lengthy geo expected of an enduro bike. Best mountain bikes for under £3,000 - capable trail bikes that won't break the bank Privateer 161 review Big Read: Big mountain pairs racing with Enduro2 Les Arcs This iteration of the CAPRA has seen quite the change from its predecessors.

Sep 2021 · Henry Quinney

The new Capra is well spec'd for the price, and it turns out it's pretty quick, too.

Highs

  • Fast in the right hands

  • The best value bike on test

  • Provides a supportive and poppy feel

Lows
  • 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: first ride review - MBR

Sep 2021 · Jamie Darlow

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.

Highs
  • 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.

Lows
  • 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.

YT Capra Shred 27.5 review

Apr 2021 · Robin Weaver

Could be a bit roomier and the seat angle could be steeper, but still incredibly capable and masses of fun

Highs
  • Low-slung, very planted suspension

  • Reassuringly rock-solid when the terrain gets demanding

  • Not the flashiest kit for the cash but everything works well

Lows
  • Seat angle could do with being steeper

  • A touch more reach wouldn’t go amiss
