First Look: The All New YT Capra Covers Both 29" and Mixed Wheeled Platforms
True, lots of broken chainstays and horrible customer service stories all around.
(Reminds me of 2010-2011 when their Tues 1.0 had tons of issues without breaking chainstays only for YT to drop the design and go for the 2.0 in 2012 while old customers got "reinforced" stays that broke as well...)
They also dont really know what they are actually producing. Some people are getting the replacement chainstays without any drainage/welding holes in the yoke but if you ask the customer service, they claim that there are only versions with holes in them as without them they could not make the chainstays... It seems they have lost all overview of what is going on at this point.
BTW: The ones without holes break as well, dont get your hopes up :(

Review: Trust Shout Linkage Fork - Does Different Mean Better?
@WAKIdesigns: True, but on the other hand I struggle to find a dh bike with a dropper compatible seattube (straight).

Review: Trust Shout Linkage Fork - Does Different Mean Better?
@WAKIdesigns: Totally agree here. Dual Crown forks and a sturdy frame make much more sense than what a lot of manufacturers are trying to sell as innovation.
The problem for me is finding a DH bike with a not ridiculously slack seat tube angle and and straight seat tube that allows for a dropper post to be inserted. Any suggestions on compatible frames?
