Norco Optic C 29 & 29/27.5" Frame Black
Optic is that friend who gets you dressed up and on-point for a night out - and the next thing you know your silk shirt's got no arms one of your shoes has gone AWOL and you've traded one of your teeth for a piercing that wasn't there when you left home. Sure it's got a little manic energy but Optic's up for a good time every time - No matter how you define Trail riding.
TERRAIN-TAILORED SUSPENSION
Optic's High Pivot Horst Link suspension platform provides 125mm net vertical wheel travel through a rearward axle path that absorbs high-speed square-edge impacts to maintain momentum and control.
PRIORITIZED PEDALING
Optic's chainstay-mounted dynamic idler positioning creates a Trail-tuned anti-squat curve that prioritizes snappy responsive pedaling with minimal kickback under heavy impacts providing active suspension over rough terrain.
FORCE SEPARATION
Optic's High Pivot Horst Link suspension provides control of anti-rise which is a fancy way of saying braking forces and suspension action operate pretty much independent of one another so your suspension works its best on or off the brakes.
PRECISION KINEMATICS
Large volume air springs precision leverage curves and custom shock tunes provide an ideal balance of bump sensitivity and the support you need to feel connected to the trail. 50mm shock stroke and reduced leverage accommodates heavier riders while still ensuring proper setup for lighter folks.
SIZE & STYLE
