Summary
The Norco Range is a high-performance enduro bike designed for speed and control on descents, featuring a high pivot suspension design that excels in rough terrain. While it offers excellent downhill capabilities and stability, it can feel sluggish on climbs and tight trails. The bike's geometry and suspension are tailored for aggressive riding, making it a favorite among riders who prioritize descending performance.
Uncompromising speed and control
High pivot suspension design
Excellent descender
Size-specific geometry
Confidence-inspiring on technical trails

Climbing agility
Heavy
Not as agile in tighter, more technical terrain
Sluggish personality when climbing
The Range asks a lot from you as a rider. It seems limitless in what it’s capable of.
BetaPoint the Range towards rowdy terrain and it makes even more sense. The chunkier, choppier and faster the trails are, the more it comes alive, and the more control and reassurance it gives you.
BikeRadarThe Norco Range is an absolute monster of a bike and one that lives for barrelling straight down the roughest, gnarliest and fastest trails you can point your stem at.

With a dialed build and insane capability for rough and rowdy descents, the Range VLT is a killer machine for the right rider and terrain.

Very comfortable climber

Suspension bob might frustrate some

The Norco Range C1 is a high-pivot downhill bike disguised as an enduro rig. What is the Canadian ripper capable of?
Stoic composure
Inspires huge amounts of confidence
Ride Aligned system offers practical advice
Robust spec
Cables rattle against the frame
Requires plenty of physical effort in technical terrain

Let’s not beat around the bush; you know it, we know it, we all know it… Everything new that Norco releases at moment is rad! Born and breed in the backwoods of the Canadian high country, Norco bikes have developed a very good reputation for delivering the absolute goods when it comes to mountain bikes and why wouldn’t they? The shredders from Norco Bikes have been at the helm of MTB since pretty much day dot. Words // Scotty Prendergast […]

A purpose-built downhill speed demon that knows what it does well and makes zero apologies for it.

The Norco Range looks mighty menacing with its low-slung coil shock, raked-out geometry and High Virtual Pivot suspension design. But could this actually be too much bike? We've been testing the 170mm travel enduro beast to find out - read on for our 2022 Norco Range C2 review.
Insane level of momentum on fast and rough trails
Huge stability and confidence-inspiring handling
Quiet and effortless suspension performance
The ZEB Ultimate brings massive front-end confidence
Tough and sticky tyre combo
It's a bloody heavy bike
Struggles on tighter trails and long climbs
Soft e*13 rims
Shock rebound adjuster is impossible to access without removing the shock
Sep 2021 · Matt Beer
There aren't many bikes out there that can match the Range's appetite for rough terrain.
Suspension performance is top notch
Quiet - minimal chain slap and rattles
Low standover with short seat tube and center of gravity
Lots of hardware to keep an eye on
Cable routing is convoluted
Weight will discourage some riders
