Review: Norco Section Carbon Ultegra SL takes on bad roads with boss parts spec

May 2019

All-road is an ever-expanding category, which could very well take the place of a traditional road bike for many people that don't participate in road races and criteriums. The Section series from Norco fits right in, with clearance for 32mm tires (plus fenders), disc brakes, and many levels of parts spec. While steel and aluminum versions are available, we reviewed the top-end carbon model with Shimano Ultegra and Novatec carbon wheels.
