Video: YT Industries’ Goatman Returns for the Launch of the New Capra

 @SMNKLM that's what er are all waiting for

 Hello DCA, before you start your nonsense, consider not doing that.

 @T4THH: No, let him do it. Its fun to watch.

 I wonder if they put a kidnapped girl in there just to troll him

 @FloridaHasMTBToo: He's obviously a troll and is very very talented at winding people up. I think everyone knows he's a troll now so the point is kinda lost BUT everyone keeps taking the bait

 Is the PB comment section hivemind usually right, or wrong? DoubleCrownAddict is almost universally hated here... which makes me think he's on to something

 TL : DW

 @fjopsys: I wouldn't say I hate DCA - I find his alternate outlook...... intriguing.

 @DoubleCrownAddict: I like it when you say, old timey bikes

 

 @onemind123: I'm surprised by the lengths PB commenters will go to defend a bike brand's whose main product seems to be its marketing. Looking back at DCA's original blog posts, I mean, there sure are a lot of skulls and lightning bolts and runes... Are YT the baddies? I have a feeling DCA will be vindicated one day and future PB hivemind will look back wondering how the comment section was so universally against someone telling the obvious truth

 @fjopsys: I don’t think people have to think very hard to figure out why DCA is so universally disliked. And I doubt time will be kind to his laughable posts.

He accuses pro riders of being nazis (Vali Höll). Thinks any type of skull is a “punisher” skull (because he can’t tell the difference). Thinks antlers are racist symbols (wtf). Thinks that all Nordic imagery is racist because the nazis stole some of it. Thinks that the Austrian coat of arms is a nazi symbol (lol). Thinks owls are a racist symbol (again, wtf). If you point this out, he either calls you a racist, deletes your comment, or deletes his photo.

On top of that, he has a habit of direct messaging people to further harass them if they don’t engage in his BS. I think the pinkbike community has this dude pretty well figured out.

 @TypicalCanadian: I dislike yt because when they entered the Canadian market they had the audacity to use one of our national animals as their marketing campaign.

 @DoubleCrownAddict: most people know DCA stands for dollar cost averaging but it hasn't stopped them here

 No please don't summon him. He's way worse than Waki

 I feel like Doublecrownaddict is Waki’s American alter ego...or his second coming...the world may never know

 @DoubleCrownAddict: In fact you're right. The bike company should use "YTI". On some bikes they even have YTIND decals...

 It's like Disney-created Star Wars - high budget crap.

 @DoubleCrownAddict: what's wrong with e*thirteen?

 @DoubleCrownAddict: I ride a YT, drive a Ford Ranger, and hate E13. Don't judge a group of people by their cover.

 @FloridaHasMTBToo: #Rangerthings

 @DoubleCrownAddict: How it looks on top of a sports car? Do you live in an alternate dimension?

 @DoubleCrownAddict: @DoubleCrownAddict: I'm 45, upper middle class & drive a 2021 GMC AT4. Sometimes I use a tailgate pad, other times I use a KUAT. I also don't drink monster energy. I only use instagram to look at hot chicks now and then. Yet I have a YT.

 @abueno: Its a Ford f*ckin Ranger

 @DoubleCrownAddict:

Brahahahahaha! I guess I'll bite (again).

None of the riders I see regularly on YTs fit that profile. And FWIW I've had pretty good luck w/ e13 tires.

Still scared about frame quality tho.

 @DoubleCrownAddict: Saaaaaayyyyy... I'm a white trash male with a sports car! Tell me more bro! Please recommend the best bike to get max likes on the 'Gram! Preferably ones without derailleurs - tyvm.

 @DoubleCrownAddict: your comment is racist and should be deleted

 @FloridaHasMTBToo: You're 15, AT BEST, you drive your daddy's truck if you even drive at all.

 @NorCalNomad: Purchased with my money and am learning to drive stick, got an issue with it?

 Strange they spent so much money on this weird promo video considering how little pro’s get paid going off the recent pinkbike article.

 Maybe the boyfriend pleading for help scene is a metaphor?

 I agree............... Less money on Movies and more money on costumer service and replacement parts(chainstays) in stock

 Kind of crazy how much bad stuff I'm hearing about their warranty and customer service. Never knew it was looked down on so badly. Always wanted a jeffsy.

 You sat through that whole thing? I made it to 3:11 without so much as a hint of a bike. Looked up and saw it was a 20-minute video and that was enough for me. That’s shit had me begging for them to bring back Walken.

 @TheR:... I did actually yes.lol...the only reason being Im on crutches at the moment and remote was too far to reach.

 @ifindoubtflatout: Doesn’t sound like it got much better past 3 minutes, then. I’ll take your word. I cannot emphasize enough how flipping little I care to find out for myself after watching that. I don’t know what it was about the bit I watched, but I was actually getting angry about it. Yes, I know I might have issues, but damn.

 @TheR:... Your issues will be insignificant compared to the folks who buy the hunk of junk. lol.... I will save you the torture of the 17 minutes you didn't watch which I likened to sticking pins in my eyes. lol

 It's sad when your time's better spent going through the comments below the release video than actually watching the release video. Not gonna watch it.

 @ifindoubtflatout: I’m not a big fan of YT, so I won’t be buying one any time soon, and this video didn’t help picking me up as a customer.

 Lmao next thing we'll be hearing that yt is getting out of the mtb industry and into the film industry.

 @DylanH93: First up, goat-based snuff films. Oh wait....

 That's a positive sign: You are above the target intellectual marketing zone YT is aiming for.

 Well, he and I are in agreement that this video sucks. But whereas he sees phantom boogeyman Nazis, I just see an infuriating, colossal waste of time.

 Me too. Didn't even watch the video or read any of the advertising blab (if there was any). Straight to comments.

 It's better now.

 @onemind123: me of little faith... of course he’s not going to disappoint.

 The use of violence against women in their marketing materials itself says a ton about the company and who they target as a customer.

 I think they love that too

 That seems like all of them now

 Aaaand he's already been suspended again...not very good marketing, if you ask me

 Simply remove the damper.

 lol at the downvotes. 6K for fox factory, eagle, renthal cockpit, etc...who else has pricing like that?

 More than it cost the R&D department of their Taiwanese supplier to prototype and make the bikes for them, that's for sure!

 Heyo..... From five hours into the future.... DCA is fulfilling his mandate as expected....

 Yes we saw your shirt. Pulling off? Spending $$$. Like your stuff...

 Yeah, the cinematography was better than plenty of Hollywood films. Everyone involved can be really proud of the end result.

 Psst, that is classified info
