Summary
The Norco Aurum is a highly regarded downhill bike, praised for its balanced and playful feel on the trail, improved stability, and advanced suspension technology. It offers a range of models from budget-friendly to high-end, with both aluminum and carbon frame options. The bike's design focuses on performance across different rider sizes, with features like size-scaled tubing and Gravity Tune. While it excels in handling and comfort, some reviews note limitations in fork sensitivity and reach for taller riders.
Balanced and playful feel on the trail
Improved stability and handling
Advanced suspension technology
Range of models for different budgets
Size-scaled tubing for better fit across sizes
Fork sensitivity can't match the rear end
Relatively short reach for taller riders
Carbon wheels can be costly to replace
Norco’s goal with the new Aurum Carbon was simple – give the riders a bike that exhibited the same handling characteristics as their 26-inch bikes with the added speed, stability and traction of 27.5-inch wheels.
