The new Norco Fluid FS A1 is built to tackle whatever trail leads to becoming the rider you want to be. Named Pinkbike’s Value Bike of the Year, Vital MTB’s Bike of the Year, and most recently, Bicycling Magazine’s Best Value Trail Bike.
We absolutely love this bike because Norco put the money where it matters… suspension, brakes, and drivetrain. Would you rather have a $4000 aluminum bike with high end components or a $4000 carbon bike with entry level components? We bet you notice the higher end parts more than that carbon frame during your ride. I mean look at this mean green machine, it has a $1000 Fox factory fork and those TRP trail evo brakes are $225 a piece.
The Fluid FS A1’s 130mm travel is precision engineered, pairing custom tuned suspension components with 140mm fork travel and boutique level fit & finish for maximum Trail performance & potential.
