Hi all

Its new bike time and I am conflicted between the Norco Sight C9.2 and Range C9.2. I own a 2016 A7.1 Range currently that is to small for me. I mainly ride single track, and local trails. 440, Skyline and Redwood forest Rotorua 3-6 times a year. The Range is beefy and heavy and my day to day riding has a lot of ups. I am leaning towards the Sight but don't want to be out gunned on the rougher trails. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers J.Big Grin

You should definitely go for a better bike like a Giant Reign. HAHA

Get a large Range you whore. Youre only gonna ride more gnarly trails as you get better.

i have ridden a range and it is closer to a downhill bike than a enduro bike. it does not pedal well and has the stance of a dh bike. if you are looking to do big drops and shred down hills it would be a incredible bike. but for cross country it will be your pet norco range and you will be walking it every where.
