Summary
The Norco Sight is celebrated as a near-perfect trail bike, offering a comfortable and confident ride right out of the gate. It excels on steep descents and varying terrain, thanks to its plush suspension and precise handling. While it's praised for its unisex and women’s specific packages, some note the women’s model's limitations in wheel size and frame sizes.

BikeRadarSometimes we feel bad for making the Norco Sight sit still for the camera all the time, so, we try to make up for it by giving it gifts. Nice things like new suspension, drivetrains, wheels, tyres etc. Over time it’s become a real mutt of a bike, with parts from all over the place.

It might be the most boring bike money can buy, but this tester is very excited about it.

Confidence inspiring trail bike best on steep, technical trails. Buy if you spend most of your rides spinning up then shredding down the steep stuff
Smooth, controlled suspension, decent kit
Weighty, not the best climber

Over the years I’ve taken to the trails with a range of bikes. At 12 years old my first “real” bike was a hardtail cross-country bike I purchased from a friend for $20. Having been such a young buck full of energy it wasn’t uncommon to find me headfirst in a batch of thorns. Simply put, …

In today’s world of mid-travel trail bikes, it seems they become more and more capable every year. Norco’s all new carbon Sight is no exception. Throw a leg over this fully redesigned steed and its purpose is clear: To shred whatever you decided to throw at it. This is one PNW inspired all-mountain bike that has expanded the limits of what I thought 130mm of travel could handle. This year’s carbon Sight has been updated to fit in with the modern era of all-mountain bike geometry. The reach is longer, the bottom bracket is lower and the headtube is slacker. This combination greatly improves the confidence one feels when pointing this trail killer downhill. The redesigned carbon front triangle and seat stay, combined with the new Boost 148 rear end, give the bike a stiff and wallow-free feel when riding aggressively. The cable routing is also extremely clean, utilizing Norco’s latest iteration of the Gizmo internal routing system. Though these changes may seem small on paper, on the trail the Sight feels like a whole new animal.

We've been riding the Norco Sight 29er for a while and the bike just works without calling attention to its wheel size or its travel. It excels quietly on climbs, singletrack and descents, the type of riding that the majority of folks do on their regular fun rides. - Mtbr.com

Norco are shaking up their collection by launching an all-new Sight that comes as a 27.5″ model or a 29er. We’ve taken a closer look at this sleek Canadian rig, so keep reading to see how the Norco Sight C 9.2 held up. A staple in Norco’s line-up for years, they’ve diligently revised the Sight […]
