2021 YT Capra

Specs, Comparisons, Reviews, Galleries

The 2021/22 Capra from YT was designed with an enduro racer in mind - this thing will take on any terrain with ease, regardless of whether you're riding uphill or downhill. With a new carbon frame and suspension system to soak up big hits, plus high quality components for much less than comparable bikes you can maintain your momentum going up hills...or power through them when heading back down again, the only challenge left is deciding which color to choose!
