Expirience with the YT Izzo CORE 2

YT Izzo CORE 2 Review
Ludwig Döhl
With the Izzo CORE 2 , the Bavarian direct seller has managed to put out a sporty allrounder. The handling of this bike is balanced. So its pretty intuitive to control on singletrails. There are bikes with a more sporty, but also with more comfortable seating approach. The Izzo CORE 2 wants to combine the best of the two worlds with a moderate orientation. Despite this criticism, the coherent overall concept makes the YT Izzo CORE 2 to tours on lower mountains a buying recommendation in the price range 2799 Euro range. With 5 years the warranty is another neat feature.
