Summary

The Norco Range is a standout in the enduro category, praised for its exceptional climbing efficiency and confident descending capabilities. Its suspension performance, particularly the A.R.T. system, offers a dynamic ride that handles technical trails with ease. The bike's geometry and frame design contribute to its versatility, making it a favorite for aggressive riders.

Pros
  • Excellent climbing ability with minimal bobbing

  • Superior descending performance with a confident rider position

  • Dynamic suspension setup handles technical trails well

  • Neutral rider position inspires confidence in jumps and turns

  • Stout frame with modern geometry for versatility

Cons
  • Small-bump compliance and traction sacrificed for efficiency

  • Heavily machined cranks show flex

  • Lack of internal routing for seatpost
