not feelin the SUPER sloped tubes. I think the v10 is the biggest slope you can get away with, without it turning out like this if that makes any sense to anyone 
yea i totally agree. In my personal opinion norco looks like they kinda missed the mark on this one. However, I have never ridden the norco team dh so i could be completely wrong...
yeah, I mean hey Ive never ridden this bike before and I bet it rides awesome but I rode last years A-line and it was very sluggish.
i think its like marmite . . . you love it or you have it but i have killed for marmite and will do it again

That is one UGLY bike."
Maybe you have a ugly face too, and you here yet..

That makes no sense.
The frame is horrible. The tubes are too curved, it's not needed.
Calling me ugly is probably covering up for yourself.

There is a difference between curved tubes, and bikes that looked like the designer suffered a spasm in their arm whilst they were drawing.
For those that havn't seen it in person, it looks much better when its right infront of you. Also I had a parking lot feel for it, short cockpit but felt nimble and super responsive to any body movemnt.
i think people might be missing the point of the super curved tubes.... most of the weight of the bike is lower because all the tubes that there are, are at the bottom part of the bike making the center of gravity super low... i bet it handles pretty sick in turns, and fsr suspension works like a charm, so im guessing its a f*cking solid bikes

its diffrent... but yeah like someone said its a bit like marmite.. love it or hate it.. main thing is if its good on the DH tracks coz thats why we buy the bikes we have right ? unless you just want to try be cool and go for a fancy bike that wont do as good on the trails...

I understand they curved the lower tube in order to make room for the shock... but why the hell is that top tube so curved? a strait line between 2 points is shorter than a curved one right? so a strait top tube would make the bike lighter...cum on Norco is that simple.Cut the futuristic design bullshit and make the bikes like u used to... I ride a 2004 A line and I don't think I'd trade it for this shiny pice of shit.
Oh guyz, and remember back in the dayz when marzzocchi had all thoes sweet working oil and spring forks?
Why are all the new once working so crapy? Is it maybe Taiwan's fault? No, it must be all that super outtaspace technology they put inside!
So my question is: Why does a company make such good products for some years and then they start making bad once! What's next, plastic bikes?
