Hi,

Looking at a few bikes. Came across a Norco as per title.

Spec includes RS Monarch 2.1 rear and Revelation 20mm maxle 150mm up front, think that is pretty stock? asides its now a 1x9 set up. Its a good price i think - well within my budget anyway.

Does anyone have any opinon on these as rider. I'm a heavy guy, but its air suspension so should be easily tuneable to my weight. I'm after a longer travel do it all bike xc/single track/trail centre.

Cheers
Steve

    My only experience of Norco Fluids is taking them back off customers who had snapped the rear stays back on the 2011 models - The LT was around for a couple of years prior to that, got OK write up's I seem to think, weren't hugely common in the UK. Do you know what year it is?

    Its a 2010 model according to the guy selling it.

    I hadn't read about the rear stays. I wouldn't be doing anything too aggressive but my weight will probably give it a bashing regardless, appreciate your comments/help. thanks.
