Summary
The Norco Sight is a versatile enduro bike praised for its high-pivot suspension design, offering a unique blend of traction, control, and fun on descents. While it excels in downhill performance and customization options, some reviews note its sluggishness on climbs and a few build-specific drawbacks. The bike's ability to switch between wheel sizes and its detailed Ride Aligned setup guide are frequently highlighted.

Enduro Mountainbike MagazineDespite its lacklustre climbing efficiency, the Norco Sight C1 pays its dues in the descending department.
off.road.ccNorco is all-in on high pivots, and the Sight is an interesting interpretation of the all-mountain machine.

It's certainly not cheap, but the Norco Sight VLT hits the mark when it comes to the price to performance ratio.
Almost perfect setup with Ride Alligned calculator
Good mix of high pivot plow and playful attributes
Absolutely the best value on test
Not as composed as other options on test
No 29er compatibility
Can feel underforked

Norco’s latest Sight joins the Optic in the brand's latest round of updates that have graced both bikes with a high-pivot suspension platform. This platform was honed and proven aboard the Range enduro bike and the brand’s downhill bike. Sitting in the all-mountain category, the Sight C1 has a real penchant for descending, providing a planted and controlled ride. However, its all-round performance is stifled by its slow-going character when ascending.

The Sight VLT CX is all about balance, boosting riders' confidence to go hard and trust their bike, will come with the latest CX system.

Very detailed setup guide
Enables different wheel sizes without altering the bike’s geometry and kinematics
Very composed
Cumbersome handling
Not very agile

We rode the all-new Norco Sight on some of Sedona's best trails for a day. Here's what to expect from the new high-pivot bike in its mixed-wheel form.
Composed, predictable suspension feel, up and down the hill with support and traction
Light and responsive for a 150mm-travel, high-pivot bike
Moderate but confidence-inspiring geometry
A little long around tight corners
Wheel swap requires additional shock mount and rocker link

We've seen more and more high pivot suspension with idler pulleys, but on short travel bikes? The new Norco Sight and Optic look interesting.
