Norco's 2019 Fluid FS1 29er is a solid all-around trail machine that offers great bang for your buck.

Where the enduro bike is overkill and the cross-country bike is nerve-wracking, the Fluid is right at home.
Feb 2019 · Alan Muldoon
The Norco Fluid FS has long been one of the best entry-level suspension bikes on the market, and for 2019 Norco has raised the bar once again.
Killer build kit and finish
Over-damped shock deadens the ride

RC compares the Norco Fluid FS 1 with Whyte's G-170 S and the Transition Scout Alloy NX to see how much trail bike you can buy for under $3000.
Jan 2019 · Seb Stott
Fun, confident handling on smooth and grippy terrain, but stubborn fork, lackluster tyres and weak brakes let it down on tricky trails. Buy if you can live with a firm fork and don’t mind upgrading the tyres
Well-balanced geometry is confidence inspiring and playful
1x11 drivetrain and dropper post help the Fluid flow over varying terrain
Plus tyres roll fast and smooth out trail chatter
Over-sprung and sticky fork is disappointing in the rough, tyres lack cornering bite, brakes lack power
