The Norco Sight VLT C2 27.5 is the power-assisted version of Norco's award-winning trail bike. Here's the final verdict on our long term test bike.
Supple and sensitive rear suspension, well-balanced frame (when new) looks a million dollars.
Whopping 630Wh battery offers extended range and reduced frequency between charge cycles.
Sorted component array out of the box: short stem, wide bar, soft-compound Maxxis 3C tyres, size-specific dropper post.
Unreliability is the Achilles’ heel of most e-bikes, and the Norco has suffered more than most with two extended periods of inactivity.
The lack of a chain device has caused untold damage to the underside of the carbon frame.
To keep it in place, the rubber charging port cover needs a more secure attachment and a tether, so you don’t lose it.

The handling!
Lively suspension that doesn't feel like your typical eMTB.
Great range.
Beautiful frame construction.
Why no water bottle?
Handlebar clutter and cable mess.
Battery is non-removable.
