I will avoid The Luge for a couple of weeks to let it dry out and to give the trail building team the chance to work on that section. I don’t want to ride it again and potentially contribute to the trail damage. The Capra is a beast downhill. This was only my 2nd ride on it, but on my 1st ride I set a new PR down The Luge. If you can only have 1 bike, Jeffsy or Izzo would be great choices. I have the Izzo as well, so I was comfortable getting the Capra and having bikes at either end of the scale

I hope it brought back happy memories for you! hahaha

Thanks!

Not at all. Suspension lockout is sound - no issues at all

@@hughieross What is that sound then?

@@dekapitacja I don't know what 'ding' sound you are referring to. However, you can hear the forks as they move, and you can also hear the gear shifting

@@dekapitacja the bike is actually very quiet. Main sound comes from the forks. No cable noise. No chain slap.

whelp they got rid of the lock out all together and got rid of the fox factory dropper and the bike is more expensive sooooooo...... i still preordered a core 4 because currently ride a hardtail and want to get into some rear travel

I am 6ft tall and riding a large. Fits me really well. I don't feel cramped on long climbs. There is always the option to change the stem length...

Andrew - I have the Pro Race. The rear shock is excellent! I have it dialled in really nicely - very little movement on climbing and it soaks up roots etc really well - I get all the travel without bottoming out. It’s the fork I am finding harder to set up - it deals with the small bumps really well, but is am not getting full travel out of it, even after increasing the sag a bit. I need to keep playing with the fork setup. Overall, I love the bike. Coming from a 100mm full sus XC bike I really notice how cable the Izzo is particularly on the descents, but also is very agile and climbs really nicely. In fact, it claims so well that I barely use the lockout.

@@hughieross Thanks! Really appreciate the input.

@@andrewvenditelli152 welcome mate! One thing I would add is that the rear shock can feel a little harsh under braking over braking bumps

@@hughieross Thanks. How many tokens are you running?

@@andrewvenditelli152 Not sure. I haven't changed anything since receiving the bike, so don't know how many (if any) were in there originally

Great pedals. Plenty of support. I came from standard SPDs so these feel a lot better and they don’t cost silly money

@@hughieross cool. I've got XTR Trails on my XC bike which give good support either side of the cleats but dont do a lot to prevent rotation. Jeffsy on the way so pedal shopping.

Great choice of bike! I don't think you will have any issues of rocks etc. I have mine in the low setting and have had perhaps 3 pedal strikes, but only when pedalling and turning a corner so the inside pedal strikes. With better technique, it wouldn't strike. I haven't felt the need to put it in the high setting yet. Enjoy yours when it arrives!

Thanks Michael. Yes, I think it could handle small to medium jumps. I am not really in to jumps myself, but the bike is built so well that I think I don't think you would have an issue. Where a longer travel trail nike might soak up the jumps a bit easier, you might have to be more conscious and deliberate with your technique on the Izzo. Think of the bike as a great all-rounder. Climbs well, descends well, great in singletracks, lightweight and agile, enough suspension for jumps and rough stuff.

@@hughieross so glad to hear that, thank you for explaining. You have been quite helpful in making my decision. I'm sold. YT IZZO it is!

Michael Bulcock I am sure you will love it! Glad I have been useful

LOVE the bike! Twistlock works fine, so far!

@@hughieross sweat. Cant wait for mine to arrive. Nice trails out there!

I would love to take it somewhere with more elevation and with more technical riding. I was considering riding Snowdon on it but I think the weather has turned bad too much now. I hope to move to Southern California early next year, so will take it to big bike parks and do some mountain riding. I think it would be great for mountain riding, but not ideal for big jumps are serious mountain stuff, where a longer travel would be advisable.

Thanks! This is the GoPro Hero 8 Black

@@hughieross solid riding by the way. Loving the IZZO videos. Buying one before the end of the year.

Michael Bulcock thanks!! You won’t regret buying it!

It was the Pro version. It was very impressive

I am located in the middle of the UK. How about you? Amazing bike - you will love it!

@@hughieross in Israel myself. My parents both from Uk, Manchester and London. Really can't wait. Doing long rides with my Transition Sentinel, not best fit. Time off of training, and doing more xc and strength practices

I don’t have an issue with the stock tyres, but I am coming from XC tyres so pretty much anything would be an improvement over the XC tyres! In theory, upgrading the stock tyres is a great idea - when the time comes, I won’t get more Forekaster tyres - I will get something with more side grip

Yes, a lever on top of the fork leg. It is not connected to the remote twist lockout

None at all. I love it!
