Geometry
Norco bikes have always had a great fit with their 'Gravity Tune' design giving riders rear centre lengths specific to their frame size. They've taken it one step further this time with their in-depth anthropocentric study of the human body. Having such refined, balanced geometry on these bikes enables your to weight your tyres evenly and get the most grip out of the bike.
Taking it to the next level Norco have developed an App to help you setup your new bike. This will allow you to enter your personal details and the app will generate information like recommended suspension pressure front and rear as well as tyre pressures. Taking much of this initial guess work out of the setup will allow riders to have a better experience with the bike and take the guess work out of that first ride.
The For The riders team will incorporate all of this when they setup a new Norco Sight with their owner in their initial fit up. As a part of this process our FTR team member will also explain all the features of your new bike inc. suspension adjustments and how to use them, adjust brake / shifter leavers and more to make sure you're dialled in on your new bike. This is all part of the 'FTR Experience' when dealing with us.
