Overview

About this bike

Poise and grace aren't typically used to describe a blazing DH run, but one ride aboard Norco's Aurum might have you singing the praises of the refined composure of this speed fiend's character. 27.5-inch wheels provide a quick and stable foundation, while precision carbon fiber engineering gives the Aurum's frame loads of stiffness for pinpoint control. Norco chose to design the Aurum around the real-world benefits of a 7-speed cassette, using 142mm rear axle spacing to optimize the chainline and increase heel clearance, while keeping tighter gear ratios for race-winning runs. For the Aurum C7.3 you get the solid-performing SRAM GX drivetrain with an 11-25T 7-speed cassette, SRAM Guide R brakes with 200mm rotors, and a Race Face Chester alloy crankset. Maxxis Minion DHF/DHR tires provide familiar grip, while the WTB STP I29 rims laced to DT 370 hubs let you rail without worry. Trail grading duty is assigned to the RockShox Boxxer RC fork, and the RockShox Kage RC Coil rear shock returns returns controlled landings and big-hit compliance season after season.
