Mountain Flyer
Tested: Norco Revolver 9.2 FS

Jan 2017

Last time I rode a short-travel full-suspension 29er was in 2006. It was a Trek from the early days of figuring out how to make the big wheels not only race fast but ride fun. The (now) dated geometry found in the high bottom bracket height, head/seat tube angles and top tube length just didn’t do the trick for me back then.

On the other hand, if you’ve been conscious and paying attention for the past little while, you’d have been witness to an amazing transformation from Norco that has led to them producing one of the most cohesive and polished ranges on the market today, including this stunning cross-country machine you see here. What is it, …

Highs
  • Perfectly finished frame.

  • Stiff construction.

  • Exceptional climber.

  • Great drivetrain and brakes.

Lows
  • Tyres aren't up to scratch.

  • Fork flex in some situations.
