Slender steel tubing gives the Norco Torrent S2 a distinctly retro look. But make no mistake; this is a thoroughly modern 29er trail hardtail.
Damped ride quality
Heavy.
BB is too high.

We aren’t joking, this hardtail is a serious trail bike. Why? Huge amounts of grip, slack and incredibly comfortable geometry and a spot-on stock build. This is a bike every mountain biker will enjoy and appreciate. Originally a staple in the Hardtail Category of your local DH races, the early versions of the Norco Torrent were …
Climb anything, descend anything.
Grips under pressure like a hardtail shouldn't be able to.
The perfect modern hardtail do-it-all geometry.
Componentry build on point.
3.0" tyres are not at home on smooth terrain or high speed berms at low pressures.
Tyres desensitise you to the trail.
Grips are flimsy and twist easily.

Excellent chassis and handling combined with plus tyres create an unstoppable full gas blaster despite a sub-standard fork. Buy if you want a fun plus-sized budget blaster and don't mind upgrading the fork
Thoughtfully designed frame, roomy cockpit, excellent climbing and descending performance
Basic – and soon broken – fork, fat rubber can feel draggy, wooden brakes
