Product Info

The Norco Optic C2 Shimano Complete Mountain Bike is a short travel trail bike that's just more fun than other bikes. It has aggressive geometry that would've previously only been seen on big gravity bikes, making it descend like a diving hawk in pursuit of a meal. The only difference here is that it's as light and nimble as the 125mm travel bike that it is, rocketing back up to the top in record time. Overbiking is over: it's time to see what short travel bikes are capable of!

Whatever the trail, whatever you ride, XT is your solution for mountain biking today. This performance workhorse gives reliable shifting mile after mile.

Brakes

Shimano RT-70 IceTech RotorsShimano RT-70 rotors deliver powerful and consistent braking performance in all riding conditions. Shimano's Center Lock mounting system makes installing and removing rotors quick and easy thanks to the spine mount and lock ring design.

Shimano XT 4-PistonThe 4-piston XT hydraulic disc brake ups the stopping power by 10% over the M8000, 2-piston version making it perfect for aggressive trail riding. Combined with IceTech pads and rotors, this setup manages heat buildup very well, giving you the same stopping power at the bottom of a long descent as the top.

Wheelset

Vittoria Martello Rear TireThe Vittoria All-Mountain Enduro Tire covers aggressive treads and strengthened constructions to prepare the rider for the huge demands of jumps, drops and various tire-threatening obstacles typical of Enduro and Downhill trails. This is where the Martello tire is rooted.

Vittoria Mazza Front TireStarting with a defined center tread, the Mazza tyre for Enduro mountain bike uses deep siping in the direction of rotation, allowing the tire to roll fast while still opposing drift, especially in off-camber terrain. The stepped leading edge rolls like a ramp, but digs in on climbs, making Mazza a top choice for both front and rear use. Substantial room was designed into the center tread to provide braking traction, while also accelerating cleaning.

Stan's Flow S1Durable and lightweight, this aluminum wheelset was developed on the World Cup DH circuit. It has a wide rim for more stability with larger tires, optimized for 2.35" - 2.8".
