well i'm gunna get negitive props for this but i think the curves are to sharp on this frame, for me it nice but not the best. PERSONAL OPINION!Smile
  • + 1
flag erik74 (Jul 23, 2008 at 10:11)
those curves are optimized for strength, while keeping a low stand-over, i also find the bends quite drastic, but then again, look around, and Norco has some of the lowest stand-over heights around, great if your short, or a younger rider (that is short), not like u can be tall and ride it though.

good job Norco, solid build.

but doesnt it look a bit like if the forks compressed to the max, the tire would touch the frame? i could just be seeing things.

looks like shit and probably doesn't ride worth a shit
i like norcos but not the 2009 at all
not some thing i would ride doesn't look like a dh bike at all
more like the shores and six bikes
they just don't seem like a dh rig anymore
but hey you never know about these weird frame designs
just maybe it will work
but what has this world come too
wheres the beastly looks

but i mite just have to try one out
