Today we are going behind the scenes of the development of the new YT Jeffsy mk3 with founder and chief visionary officer, Markus Flossmann and product development manager, Frank Dörr. We chat about what the Jeffsy aims to be and what the challenges were to bring that to life. Hear about the crazy launch videos, how much goes into some of the smaller details of the bike that you’ll probably not notice, why they have carbon and aluminium options and which one you might prefer. We also talk about how the choose the specs, why looks are important and much more. Oh and they turn the tables on me and ask me the final four questions. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Frank Dörr and Markus Flossmann.

You can checkout the new Jeffsy over at yt-industries.com. You'll find the launch video here. Also, don't forget that if you want to see and demo the bike, you can either head to your nearest YT Mill or book in to the Rolling Circus demo tour.
