quite entertaining... shows how many kids on pink bike like to share their opinion even though they dont have the money to back a decision anyways.

freeride-maverick (May 18, 2009 at 13:46)

nice, it looks amazing!!

ninjaty (Jun 19, 2009 at 13:16)

it's a voulentary recall. meaning the bike meets all standards associated with it. It is rental fleets and racers that have problems due to the constant beating. the amount of consumers that do have issues is rather minute in the big picture, infact less than many other big bike companies.

This thread is TOO funny!

psychroptic (Jul 4, 2009 at 10:28)

agreed

this bike doesnt look all that great, hey who cares, i bet it rides like a dream, deadly components, so fuck looks as long as it rides nice and he likes his bike let him be

guiguig (May 23, 2009 at 16:33)

It rather have this bike than your.. Sorry, I had an 07 Park Edition with an 08 66Rc3, and it rode nice. Plus, the new Rocco Air is pretty nice.

someguy101 (May 30, 2009 at 21:43)

somebody is either confused or had a sudden desire to shift disciplines

spoiledgoods (Jun 19, 2009 at 9:38)

For anyone interested in this frame, please make sure it has gone through the Norco recall for heatube issues. Either that, or you may run into big time problems.

rrad218 (Jun 19, 2009 at 9:46)

why would there be big time problems? I already have the new frame. Thios is an old picture.

ninjaty (Jun 19, 2009 at 9:50)

why would a voulentary recall be big problems?

spoiledgoods (Jun 19, 2009 at 10:36)

Why?
Because the head tube is faulty. Its a big problem for Norco as its blowing head tubes off there bikes. It can pose a big issue for you because you could be eating pavement after thinking your frame had been recalled.

You should post a photo of the new frame, as your photo claims its the new frame, but its not.

ninjaty (Jun 19, 2009 at 11:49)

norco isn't Kona, if a headtube cracks, it dosn't fall off. you are talking out your ass. and yes, it should be the new frame posted.

spoiledgoods (Jun 19, 2009 at 12:49)

Im talking out my ass?
We had to return a norco for this specific reason man.
Trust me, Whats to say a Kona will blow off? Crack or not, your headtube is damaged.

ninjaty (Jun 19, 2009 at 13:03)

your ignorance is frustrating. even before the recall, that bike is fine.

spoiledgoods (Jun 19, 2009 at 13:07)

Hahaha ok man.
its not ignorance, im simply stating norco has OPENLY said they had a issue with this year range of bikes, and they are WILLING to trade frames with you. Its not a question of how frustrating it is....its the fact the bike is faulty. If its fine, why recall it?

If they were not worried about it, they wouldnt have posted the news article man.

lights (Jun 20, 2009 at 22:25)

Bingo,and why would someone want a brand new frame at no cost ?

jparkin (Jun 28, 2009 at 21:53)

i agree

CoN-AiR15 (Jul 3, 2009 at 9:12)

psychroptic (Jul 4, 2009 at 10:29)

i agree my totem rides really nice

CoN-AiR15 (Jul 4, 2009 at 10:54)

psychroptic (Jul 6, 2009 at 9:33)

MrBritishtwofortythree (May 24, 2009 at 22:00)

How does it feel with 7" in the front?

rideharder7 (May 23, 2009 at 21:57)

No one is going to buy it, it is on recall. Send it back to norco.

rrad218 (May 24, 2009 at 12:02)

shorerider16 (Jun 18, 2009 at 19:07)

rrad218 (May 24, 2009 at 12:03)

th3alan (May 28, 2009 at 19:50)

if it deserves to be ridiculed, than why does the new team dh have an air shock? the sinlge crowns look a bit sketch though, but im sure they feel nice

noelonpc (Jun 11, 2009 at 9:10)

oldschoolj (May 24, 2009 at 17:07)

kids and their comments..lol..my team Dh is 38.5 lbs... Norco is great! Its canadian, and all canadian bike companies are the best. Support Canadian products guys

someguy101 (May 31, 2009 at 9:18)

too bad they make them overseas now, that means they are not Canadaian product anymore, and therefore I will not be suporting them. Cove, Knolly, RockyMtn, 243 is what you should be supporting

noelonpc (Jun 11, 2009 at 9:11)

here's a list of where most bike frames are made
allanti.com/page.cfm?PageID=328

and WHERE a frame is made is irrelevant, a weld made in china is just as strong as one made in europe or america... anyone who says otherwise is ignorant...

l-lellraiser (Jun 11, 2009 at 9:33)

ignorant or racist because a weld is as only good as the years of practice under a welders belt and those asians weld shipd together!, do they sink!, NO!.

l-lellraiser (Jun 11, 2009 at 9:33)

Edit* Ships together!

someguy101 (Jun 11, 2009 at 17:08)

Yes i agree that a weld made in Taiwan or CHina is of the same quality as the weld made in USA or Canada (considering that these welders have the same skill experience under their belt). However, companies that are currently still produsing here in North America are facing significant costs in labour, materials, etc. SO they deserve more of our support in my opinion. They are also trying to come up with more innovative ideas and make their products stand out from the rest so that they can capture as much market share as they can. Obviously it is difficult for them to succeed since they have to compete with brands such as Specialized, Giant, etc. which have far less production costs to worry about. Therefore, I am not ignorant at all or racist for that matter, I consider everything and choose my options wisely as a consumer.

Support genuine Canadian products!

noelonpc (Aug 2, 2009 at 12:38)

Norco is still a Canadian OWNED and OPERATED company... just cause they outsource the frame construction doesnt mean it's a WalMart bike... the design and research is still done by BC boys/girls, and then SPEC-FOR-SPEC remade in Taiwan...
