I take the brand new YT Capra Core 1 MX to Rogate Downhill to ride it for the first time, and see whether it's any good! At £2699 it's one of the more budget friendly options on the market right now so i'm really interested to see how it gets down. Got this bike for a few more weeks so if there's any specific content you want to see, then let me know in the comments!

Incredible riding as always man. How was the Zeb base damper? Did it keep you up in the travel? Haven’t seen much on the rush rc damoer. I got one in order, about to pull the trigger on the charger 3 upgrade barely used for $200.
@willgreenfield
@willgreenfield Жыл бұрын
Thank you! I would say it's an ok damper for the average rider, lack of compression adjustment isn't ideal if you like to fine tune, but the stock tune rides great for people who aren't too bothered about messing with suspension damping. To be fair i haven't ridden enough rough technical trails on it yet to give a detailed verdict but i'd honestly suggest waiting and trying this damper for a bit before spending a couple hundred dollars on a charger upgrade... you may like it!

As a first ‘real’ mountain bike, would you recommend paying 500€ more to get the core 2 for the suspension, break + wheel upgrade?
@willgreenfield
@willgreenfield Жыл бұрын
Tricky question! I think it also depends on your personal preference, as the core 2 has fox suspension instead of rockshox... to be honest in this case i'd probably say save yourself £500 and get the core 1, as the db8 brakes are actually quite good... the sunringle wheels are a bit heavy and soft but if they do end up a problem, you can replace them in the future and hopefully for less than €500! Hope that helps :)

how DB 8 brakes work? Are they good enough? because they have average reviews... I want to buy a Capra but I don't know which model: core 1 vs core 2. Is core 2 worth the $500 extra?
@willgreenfield
@willgreenfield Жыл бұрын
I only used them for 2 months, but they held up great. Feel quite similar to code r. Only annoying thing for me was the lack of tool free reach adjust 😤 and that i think really depends on you, and how much £500 means to you. Personally £500 is a lot of money so i'd choose the core 1 and then upgrade parts as/when i break them or when they wear out. Hope that helps!

@@kevinkoz01 thats sick, in the UK they're only £1999 on sale right now which is crazy cheap compared to most brands. I would say the weight is noticeable if you're used to lighter bikes (i've had trail bikes before between 13-14kg). But as long as you've got strong legs you'll be fine! I think most of the weight comes from the wheelset actually, so you could upgrade that in a year or two and save a decent amount of weight i reckon!

@kevinkoz01 Жыл бұрын
@willgreenfield I have already received my bike. I am satisfied 😍 The brakes are good and I have no plans to change them for now. The weight is not noticeable and the ride uphill is very pleasant. The only thing I noticed is that the rear shock absorber doesn't have a damping lock which is strange to me. I thought it was standard on trail/enduro bikes. Do you have an idea how to harden the rear shock absorber only for uphills? Applying more air pressure will partially eliminate this problem, but a complete blockage would be a better option 😊

@willgreenfield
@willgreenfield Жыл бұрын
Hi, i've ridden both, and although the status is more expensive (at RRP), i think i'd take it... However it is very close! For me the wheels and brakes are the only things i dislike about this capra, it still rides very well but if you upgraded them then it would be a status-beater. But for now, if you can find a status for less than the price of this bike (i know there's some sales going on) then i would choose it. But that's just my opinion of course, ideally you should try and demo both bikes before spending the money on either. Hope that helps!

I didn't particularly enjoy the process of filming the first half of this video, hence why i didn't say much, i was just grafting to get some decent riding clips so anyone interested in the bike could see footage of it being ridden! Of course i respect everyone finds interest in different types of content, so if it doesn't interest you to watch it then i have no problem with that at all, but just didn't see the need for the negative comment... but each to their own!
