Jan 26, 2017YT Capra CF Pro Race
$3200 GBPNew Photos Added showing the Spec as per Sale!
Selling my YT Capra CF Pro Race in Stealth Black. The frame size is Large. I'm 5' 11" & I would say that it's a very good fit.
I have Upgraded the following parts:
~ Wheelset - Ibis 741 Carbon with 35mm Internal Width Rims & DT Swiss Rear Hub - There is 1 small scuff on the Rear Rim as shown in the Photos
~ Front Tyre - Maxxis Shorty 3C, Maxx Terra, EXO, TR 27.5 x 2.5" WT (Wide Trail) set up Tubeless
~ Rear Tyre - Maxxis DHF EXO, TR 27.5 x 2.5" WT (Wide Trail) set up Tubeless
~ Seatpost - RockShox B1 Stealth 170mm with a LH Above Lever - This has a scuff on the Top of the Lever near the Bleed Screw.
~ Pedals - DMR Vault
~ Full Frame Invisiframe in Gloss Finish
~ Full Fork Invisiframe in Matte Finish
~ RRP Front Enduro Mud Guard
The above Wheel / Tyre Package has done approx 75 Miles!!
The Pedals are from a previous Bike & have the marks to prove it but they're only cosmetic & they work fine. ALL the Pins are Present as I Loctited them in!
The rest of the Bike is Factory Spec & in Total this Bike has done less than 200 Miles!!
The Fox X2 Rear Shock has been back to Mojo for the Recall.
When I bought the Bike the LH Pedal was seized in the RF SixC Carbon Crank Arm & it stripped the Thread. Unfortunately you can't purchase the Crank Arms separately but I managed to source a New one (being in the trade!).
The only slight difference is that it has the Orange Decals rather than the Grey. I purchased a Grey Decal set from Slik Graphics but you don't get the small RaceFace Logo decal. So the LH Crank Arm has an Orange RaceFace Logo.
You can see it in the Photos.
This is a Private Sale & I would prefer Collection in Person.
Shipping would be awkward as I don't have a Box Big enough! This isn't included in the Asking Price.

Manufacturers Description:
RACE PROVEN - Nino Schurter raced the XMC 1200 SPLINE wheels to the top step of the Podium at the 2016 World Championships and at the Olympic Games in Rio. #Goldstandard.
The XMC 1200 SPLINE® is for anyone who enjoys high-speed climbing and descending: the hookless design allows super-precise construction of the rim for perfect tubeless compatibility.
It massively reduces the chance of punctures, is very low in weight and achieves excellent tire support with the 24 mm rim width. The new SPLINE® hub is the lightest wheel hub ever built by DT Swiss.
Together with the DT aerolite® and DT aero comp® spokes and a high-quality wheel construction, it is the ideal complement to the high-end rim, resulting in the ultimate trailbike wheel – the XMC 1200 SPLINE®.
Equipped with the 36T DT Swiss Ratchet System for quicker engagement, it is made for powerful acceleration and demanding technical trails.

Ibis 741 Wheelset 100mm Front & 142mm Rear
IBIS CARBON FIBRE WHEELS AND RIMS -THE NEW NORMAL AND THE NEW WIDE.
Wider rims are better than narrow rims.
A wider rim delivers better sidewall support so in many cases you can run lower pressures in your rubber. tyres mounted on wider rims don’t burp as easily. Lower pressures, even a pound or two, do several beneficial things, including increasing the contact patch, which results in better traction. Running lower pressures on varied terrain actually reduces rolling resistance. Wider rims are stronger and stiffer. With increased traction comes increased braking control.
Welcome to the wide world of Ibis wheels and rims, what we refer to as The New Normal and The New Wide.
The 741 and 941 are carbon fibre 27.5 and 29er rims with monster 41mm widths that deliver super tyre stability even with large tyres at low pressure.
DT HUBS
We are happy to announce that we are now featuring a DT Swiss 350 rear hub on all our wheelsets. With a 54 tooth ratchet, you get a 6º engagement in a super strong, reliable hub.
You can’t have too much traction - Ancient mountain bike proverb!!
BENEFITS OF WIDER RIMS:
Dramatically increased traction
Reduced rolling resistance
Less tubeless ‘burping’
Stiffer, stronger wheel
lighter than most narrow aluminium rims
Better braking control
Improved flat protection
More predictable feel
You can run a lighter tyre with similar durability
Hookless bead rims are far stronger
Easy to mount tubeless with just a floor pump
