Overview

About this bike

It doesn't have to be all work or all play. See things differently on board Norco's Optic C3. Buff singletrack? A forest of off-camber roots? Punchy climbs and chunky descents? Yes, yes, and yes; all things are possible with dialed A.R.T. suspension powered by a Fox Performance Float DPS shock and a RockShox Revelation RC Solo Air fork. Roll loud and proud on fast-moving, tubeless-ready WTB rims wrapped in tacky Maxxis tires, a combo that won't disappoint. The SRAM Eagle GX 1 x 12-speed drivetrain offers a wide gear range and impressive reliability and simplicity. Let's not forget the rest of the bike: an SDG Duster saddle, Ergon lock-on grips, and Norco alloy handlebar and stem keep those contact points happy; powerful SRAM Level T disc brakes are there when you need to reign in the fun; and a dropper post is included so you can stay loose and in control through your favorite rock garden.
