Even though nothing has changed on the frame of the YT Jeffsy, the 150 mm bike will appear in fresh colours and with an updated spec in 2022.

At the YT Industries Jeffsy Core 4 for 5199 euros is the most expensive bike in the current model range, which starts at 2999 euros. In top trim, the Jeffsy has Fox Factory suspension with 150 millimetres of travel, a Sram X01 Eagle drivetrain and aluminium wheels from DT Swiss. This means that the robust all-mountain bike with carbon frame and 29-inch wheels weighs in at an average of 14.1 kilos without pedals. A closer look at the equipment makes it clear: YT Industries makes no compromises when it comes to downhill performance.

The test costs 0.99 euros. Why not free of charge? Because quality journalism has a price. In return, we guarantee independence and objectivity. This applies in particular to the tests in BIKE. We don't pay for them, but the opposite is the case: we charge for them, hundreds of thousands of euros every year.
