Overview
About this bike
You'll be the talk of the park when you show up raging on Norco's Empire 5. Its aluminum frame with compact geometry and slack head angle gives this rig precision control and maneuverability for stellar trick style. A Marzocchi Roco Coil shock delivers 131mm of plush travel for soaking up every sick drop, and you'll appreciate the short chainstays for explosive accelerations. Plus, you can't beat the insane stopping power of Avid's Juicy 3 disc brakes and the sweet spec from SRAM and Norco that round out this rad rig.
