"2024 Norco Sight and Optic: High-Pivot, Short Travel Trail Confidence"
The 2024 Norco Optic is a unique trail bike with a high pivot, short travel, and aggressive geometry, featuring a 125mm rear travel, 140mm fork, and high pivot idler-equipped suspension design. The bike offers various frame options, adaptable geometry, and a Ride Aligned approach to bike sizing. While it excels in descending with impressive characteristics, its climbing performance may not be as snappy as other short travel bikes, and the idler pulley may cause some noise and drag. Overall, the Norco Optic is designed for riders seeking a bike that can push beyond its purview when ridden hard.
