A bike with lower gearing will be easier to ride up steep hills, while a higher top end means it will pedal faster down hills.

Riassunto

The Norco Search gravel bike family is celebrated for its versatility, comfort, and performance across various terrains, making it a top choice for gravel enthusiasts. With options for carbon or steel frames, it accommodates a wide range of riding styles from bikepacking to racing. The bike's design emphasizes durability, with features like ample tire clearance and multiple mounting options, though some components like the PF86 Press-fit bottom brackets and drivetrain noise are noted drawbacks.

Not a delicate carbon race bike that needs to be pampered, and can handle some surprisingly rough terrain with ease

Norco 2018 Search XR gravel bike review: carbon versus steel - CyclingTips

apr 2018 · Matt Wikstrom

Norco has been in the bike business for over fifty years, however there are some markets that are still unfamiliar with the brand despite the extensive catalogue of offerings and wide range of appeal. But if Norco has a strength, then it surely lies with its off-road bikes. The Search XR is Norco’s new gravel […]

Norco Search XR Carbon Ultegra Review

feb 2018

We review the 2018 Norco Search XR Carbon Ultegra, the latest gravel weapon from Norco. With sleek looks that disguise its abilities as a multi-day adventure machine, we were very impressed by its versatility, practicality and finish. Read the full review.

Pro
  • A good looking adventure sled.

  • Confident, stable handling without feeling dull.

  • Plenty of tyre clearance.

  • Great spec at a good price.

Contro
  • Our butt and the Norco's saddle were at war.

Norco Search XR Carbon Review, Force 1

gen 2018 · Miles Arbour

We took the Norco Search XR Carbon on rugged desert tracks and beyond to see what a top-of-the-line ‘adventure-road’ bike can do. Here's the review...

Contro
  • PF86 Press-fit bottom brackets will likely be a gripe for many people interested in this bike, but we had no problems.

  • 3 bolt anything cage mount in the main triangle is of little use due to the small triangle, would have been nice to see those on the downtube.

  • Gearing might be a little high for some loaded up for bikepacking, so a chainring swap or cassette expander may be needed.

  • Dropper post is slightly awkward to use with the longer, stock stem.

  • Not cheap. Although I do think you get what you pay for, and that includes a drop-bar bike capable of taking on most types of terrain right out of the box. Check out the XR Steel and XR Carbon Apex models for cheaper alternatives.

  • A bit sluggish on pavement without pumping up to a higher pressure, as expected for 650b x 2.1” tires.

As well as riding this bike for my short but sharp daily commute through the centre of Bristol, I’ve taken it on a few longer road rides too and even had a stab at some local mountain bike trails. . .
