I hope Norco doesn't ruin the shore hardtails as bad as the DJ bikes.

Flashy colour schemes are what the current buyers are looking for, it why you see so many people out there buying products based on aesthetics rather than performance. You can't expect them to keep reusing the same colours, then people would cry that they aren't doing anything different.

As much as I don't care for it, it does show that Norco is paying close attention to its demographic and the 09s will sell very well without a doubt. They are a nice looking bike.

Nah, if norco was paying close attention to its customers and non customers, but consumers, they would have a thing called OPTION. Just cuz every 12-18 year old now wants to be a homo wanna be, doesn't mean there isnt people anymore who want a solid couler or just something a little less on the eyes. I agree with onetimetwotime.

the black argyles just kinda appear out of nowhere and clash with everything....i think it would look better with black tyres and maybe black handlebars..

I am certainly liking the frame though. Definetly liking the integrated seat post tensioner, thats a real nice touch.

Anyone know what company pivotal seats are on all these new norcos?

alienation?

Im esspecially disliking the bar stem cranks and tires, but those could easily be switched up.

but for an average person speding thier money on this bike and not planning on upgrading its nice

anyone know what brakes on 4hun and 250?

Haha harlie, but 12-18 almost exclusively represents the dj market. When a kid thinks, hmm I'd like to get into biking, what type of bike is bought? A dj or street complete. Very good choice on Norcos part to do this and they will get a ton more business out of it.

Yes but in turn may lose many of their tried and true customers at the same time, but hey I guess that is business. You do have a point though, Norco is usually the first really nice bike people coming into the sport pick up for starting off.
