Summary
The Norco Sight is a versatile and well-rounded trail bike, praised for its climbing efficiency and descending capabilities. Its ART suspension platform offers a plush ride with good traction, though some reviews note a lack of suppleness in small bump compliance. The bike's geometry and handling are frequently highlighted as strengths, making it a confident choice for technical terrain.

Agile handling
Lack of small bump compliance

I was really impressed with this bike. It was flat out one of the better climbing bikes of the lot and it felt crazy capable on descents.
BIKE MagazineThe ART suspension performed perfectly; it’s lively under pedaling load but bottomless for the bigger hits.
Mountain FlyerNorco was one of the first brands to recognise the potential of 650b wheels.

An absolute bag-load of fun.
Will jump, skid and drift till your face cramps from smiling.
Cane Creek shock is complicated to setup.
No tubeless valves or rims strips included.
Price is a little steep we feel.

Norco is another bike brand that has embraced 27.5" wheels wholeheartedly. The Canadian company offers mid-size wheel bikes for virtually every discipline, with the majority of them finding a home in the Sight line of 140-mm-travel all-mountain bikes.

The Norco Sight is a well balanced bike with supple suspension and 140mm of travel front and rear — but is it solid enough to cut it as a modern trail bike?
Supple suspension on the rear
Balanced handling, even as you go up in sizing
The fork is too spindly
Only medium sizes left now in the UK

In the back corner of my local bike shop sits a 2007 Norco A-Line, a colossal black beast of a bike with 9 inches of travel, a massive dual crown Marzocchi fork, and enough metal framework to support the space shuttle—a bike built for kids who grew up watching low res video of Bender, Schley and Simmons flinging themselves off any cliff they could find between the North Shore and Moab.

A predictable, dependable trail bike that handles more than you might expect. A stiffer fork would open up its potential
