that is so nice, and really good new look

BigRidah (Jul 15, 2009 at 11:06)

Add a Air Shock, Boxxer World, Thomson Post, Tubeless wheels and tires. Then you get a very very light bike.

or just keep it the way it is

bleakers (Jul 15, 2009 at 12:14)

onyl comment i really have on this beautiful bike is i think they could of done a "cooler" desgin for "norco" on the bike...

i know function first but when you have a nice bike like this something little like that to make it look better i think they coulda done but really beatiful ride

BigRidah, did you know that a vivid with a Ti Spring is just as light as a air shock if not lighter?

BigRidah (Jul 15, 2009 at 18:58)

I sir, did not know that, thank you for the information.

hucker13 (Jul 15, 2009 at 19:08)

You did not know that because it is completely untrue.

TooLegit2Quit (Jul 15, 2009 at 19:38)

Well hucker13, i will stick to what the scale says

looks photo shoped looks at the cards to the left and the white on the bike (boxxer)

TooLegit2Quit (Jul 21, 2009 at 15:34)

Wow cool, they're both the same colour.

hucker13 (Jul 21, 2009 at 22:49)

@TooLegit2Quit:

A Fox DHX Air (9.5x3.0") weighs approximately 455g.

A Vivid weighs approximately 462g for the shock body alone, plus either ~500-600g for a steel spring or ~250-300g for an Obtanium ti spring (lightest you can buy).

Next time you try to "stick to what the scale says" you should try sticking to the facts instead!

TooLegit2Quit (Jul 21, 2009 at 23:42)

Well thanks for clearing that up!

hucker13 (Jul 21, 2009 at 23:44)

No worries, if you can't tell I'm a bit of a bike geek

Treebasher (Jul 15, 2009 at 7:10)

Looks much beefier than last year's swoops but without the curvy toptube, the standover looks really high. Brule, any chance of geo.s being posted?

dsheffer (Jul 15, 2009 at 0:15)

thats sick the 09 one looked brutal norco really stepped it up for 2010

crazybiker247 (Jul 15, 2009 at 0:20)

yeah, i really like 2010 a lot better than 2009 team dh

woody-dh (Jul 15, 2009 at 2:12)

bulletdodger (Jul 15, 2009 at 11:51)

OK. Just as ridersplayground1 said, nicer than 2009. but still ugly. And I can't shake off the sad feeling of past Norco mistakes. Pulling from sale their previous models cause of snapping headtube definitely made some riders think twice before buying a Norco bike. And also, I know Norco 'borrowed' Specialized's FSR but somehow Norcos suspension design never made good impression on me. Just to be clear, I'm talking about aesthetics. I've ridden Norcos and their suspension is doing a terrific job but the look of pivot placements just gives me creeps. The pieces of metal connecting the main pivot with the frame, c'mon...

betterthansx (Jul 15, 2009 at 15:38)

wow...not to bash Norco...but this bike just looks cheap...just like last years bike too...it did grow on me but you need a bike like the V-10 or M6 that u look at and just say...holy f**k i want that...its good that its cheaper now but still a bike that is $5000 still has to be desireable

nickf (Jul 14, 2009 at 23:18)

pretty retro, kinda rocky mountain(ish) look. sweet

greendoor (Jul 15, 2009 at 12:16)

I'm not a hugh fan of the new frame designs this year with all the bent tubes. That said this is the sickest norco I've seen in a long time!! a very long time.

mountainfreeride (Jul 16, 2009 at 12:16)

I'm glad Norco got rid of that curvy design their frames had the past couple of years

dean (Jul 15, 2009 at 7:18)

looks great, good work norco.

Noremac55 (Aug 9, 2009 at 5:58)

WOW, really nice, gunna have to mod the Atomik now to make it look bit better.... white and black wheels i think!

Azrun (Jul 15, 2009 at 0:37)

this bike looks amazing like a cross between the rockymountain flatline and the commencal supreme in my opinion

woody-dh (Jul 15, 2009 at 2:13)

Absolutley love it. Can't wait to see it in action.

ajlariviere (Jul 15, 2009 at 11:47)

nice but i thibk it looks like a flat line

dodgezilla (Jul 15, 2009 at 13:17)

fell321 (Jul 15, 2009 at 15:27)
