Norco's New $4,500 Torrent DH - Ready for Big Moves & the Bike Park
Love seeing this as a big Norco fan. Used to work for a local dealer of them and currently on a sight 5. If I could give one point of feedback on these “base” builds, it would be to stop with the wtb wheel specs for a bike like this or the e-bikes, they just don’t hold up at all. Even so, great job Norco. Wish you guys all the luck!

Feb 21, 2026Reeb Steezl XL Frame w/Shock
$2300 USDReeb Steezl XL 2025 frame for sale. Frame has been ridden for about a year, only selling due to needing to represent brands I deal as a shop employee. One scuff I could find near bb area shown in pictures, otherwise frame is looking great. Color is a custom paint from Reeb, it is a black base with teal and silver metallic flecks for a very cool look. Difficult to capture in photos but I will do my best. Shock is a Rockshox Vivid Coil Ultimate with a Super Alloy Racing spring setup 425lbs (lightweight Eibach spring with bushing to prevent coil bind/twist). Also have a regular 450lbs spring if desired. Frame has a Cane Creek Hellbender 70 headset that I will leave installed. I also have a Oneup V3 210mm dropper that I could sell with the frame if buyer would like. Frame will come with all cable routing clamps and bottle cage bolts originally supplied with frame as well as rear axle and UDH hanger. Prefer pickup but willing to ship if buyer pays shipping.

First Ride: SRAM's New Motive Brakes
@FrederickJ: yeah I wouldn’t say that I fully understand why direct link would have a lighter pull, mainly just going off the description in this review. I just like tinkering with bike parts and while I like some things about my mavens, I wouldn’t mind toying with others.

First Ride: SRAM's New Motive Brakes
@mikekazimer: interesting. I get that that’s why people stayed away from the Code R’s but wonder if it would be more useful on the mavens.

First Ride: SRAM's New Motive Brakes
I wonder if the direct link would be compatible with Mavens, or if they might make a compatible one in the future? Wouldn’t mind trying a lighter pull, and more control on the crazy bite being more linear like a Magura etc.

Feb 27, 2025Santa Cruz 5010 v5 CC XL Frame
$1600 USDFrame for sale is a v5 CC XL 5010, shock is a Rockshox Super Deluxe Ultimate. I built the bike up late spring/early summer of 2024 and rode it for around 8 months. The frame is very clean, I had frame protection and the only scuff I could find (pictured) is between the swingarm and shock tunnel above the sag window where a pebble was thrown up in there by the front wheel. Shock has no stanchion scratches, looks like new and works like new with no cavitation in the damping. Frame will come with a Cane Creek Hellbender 70 headset, original rear axle, UDH hanger (machined type that Santa Cruz makes), and the shock. I am a shop head mechanic and as such the frame has been fully disassembled and cleaned/greased all pivot hardware. The shock has gotten an air can service with new wiper and seals within the last 10-20hrs of riding time. Willing to ship, buyer pays shipping. Only secure paypal goods and services payments will be allowed. Thanks!
