Hello,
I just received my brand new YT Capra Al Comp. I originally bought the Capra because the Jeffsy was only available with 29 inch wheels. The day after I ordered my Capra, YT released Jeffsy 27. Capra is a bit of an overkill for me and I want to know if it's worth exchanging it for the Jeffsy? I have 2 week period for this and I want to make the decision before March. The main concern for me is the pedalling. Would there be a night and day difference in terms of pedalling between these two bikes? My Capra pedals relatively well, I'm quite satisfied with the pedalling ability of this bike, but how much better would the Jeffsy pedal (in your opinion)? And do you think the 400g difference in weight would make a significant difference? Would you bother packing the bike back up and sending it back to YT? This is a very serious decision for me as 3k euros is a lot of money, you don't want to spend that kind of money and not be happy. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
P.S just to clear up - 150mm travel of the Jeffsy would be enough for me.
