YT Capra Unboxing | YT Capra Review of components | 2018

YT Capra Unboxing and component review. Today I got together with Zach and Jordan for the official unboxing of Zach's YT Capra! This is such a sick bike and it was so much fun to see it come out of the box and get built. Listen in as Zach builds this bike and discusses the included components and why they are a good tradeoff.

This is a sick bike with ...

Shimano SLX (lowest component on the box)
E*Thirteen TRS+ 9-46 Cassette (1x11 with 511% gear range)
584x25 DT SWISS E1900 Spline 27.5
Sram Code R brakes
200mm centerline rotor
170 mm RockShox Lyrik RC fork
1700 RockShox Super Delux R shock
E*Thirteen TRS+ dropper post
Maxxis High Roller II tires
E*Thirteen TRS+ chain guide

Finally a good unboxing video. Two questions, what frame size and how tall are Zach?

This video is me.... This is the bike I've decided I'm gonna get. Saving my money in hopes to order it when I get home from this deployment. That blue even, looks sick! Thanks for the vid. It's great to see focus on lower cost quality bikes rather than $5k+ bikes made of unobtanium. Not everybody is independently wealthy or willing to go into debt for a bike.

Welcome Zach to the YT Family! The new Capra is so awesome!

Thank you so much, best video I’ve found on the bike yet!!

Really sharp bike! I like the explanations during the build. Those brake rotors are huge! The way he lined up/centered the brakes is the same way I did it. Easy to do fix. I even like the color of the bike. Nice video, as always.

YT for the win! Also, sending healing vibes your way!

Great Unboxing/review video! can´t wait to get mine...

[iancho]

Very nice, congratz! 4 some reason I tought it has to be delivered with a set of flat pedals... happy rides!

4:27 Doesn't that dropper return too quick? LOL Imagine it hitting you in the nuts at that speed XD.

So not only have I watched this several more times, but now my son is considering the same bike. Are you planning a follow up review or anything of this bike? Really he seems more knowledgeable and to the point than most big name YouTube bike reviews. I look forward to more.

Hi cool video, . nice bike. How do you make sure the rear shifter is in good place? if it's not all the gears do not pass correctly. thx

I freaking want the Capra AL Comp but the blue looks so much better....

[AngelLovesToLook]

I'm in the market for a new bike and I'm totally overwhelmed with the options out there. What made you decide to go with YT??

[MikemoRides]

Just ordered an AL Comp closeout. Quick question, are the brakes still set up in the euro style of the rear on the left?

[motionstku]

hey Nice video! Can I ask you something: Why did you choose the normal AL - Im thinking about buying the AL Comp - is it worth the extra 500? Or would you say the normal AL is enough?

[BobButtafruco]

Great vid! Is this a large frame size?

[wittwer]

Mine is the same spec but 29er. Gets in tomorrow. Cant wait. Would have gotten the Cf in matte black, just becasue it's only a little bit more the the AL comp, but theyve been sold out forever, and the blue and back is just too good. Might swap the shock out for the Super Deluxe RCT3, and the sell the R, once I ride it a few times if im not totally happy with the way it climbs.

[taylorkrumroy]

How did the bike end up riding for ya?

Considering selling my ‘18 Bronson Carbon for the AL 29 Capra Pro. I think I want to move from a large to an XL and I definitely miss my big wheels.

[MicheleNardovideos]

Ehi great video!! I just wanted to know how tall are you and what size you chose :D

[glpf]

Nothing like that new bike smell..too bad I can only do it once every 5-6 years:(
