Norco 06 - The Real Deal (updated)

Derek Yates

Hey All,

For those that have been asking here are the first sneak peaks of 06 Norco bikes. Obviously these are pre-production and there are likely to be tweaks and changes before production, but I know a lot of people will be stoked to see some new gear! More to come as they trickle in from Norco! The Canadian guys are building up and testing frames as they come in (as you can see). We should see ours soon too...... :)

Production bikes are still a fairly long way off, it is only July!

Best regards,

Derek @ Norco.Au

Don't you love when new stuff comes out. It never fails to make you wish you had waited a year before you bought.

Love the new aline.

Looks like the shore is goin to be a really good freeride bike. It looks loads lighter than the current model in the frame alone, and the single crowns would really enable it to handle well. Much more improved over this years.

buy one for dereks sake

thank god they are a company not driven by "next year model" releases :rolleyes: 02/03/04/05/06/0same

looks like the "plumbers" at norco have been on smoko again ie. not much has changed except the year date, but that new 4x bike must have been made from a set of stolen plans...looks noyhing like a dorco.

the ugliest bike ever..............but buy one for dereks sake
 
I've never really liked Norcos, there are very few I would even consider buying.

They are so ugly who cares if they work or not.

After seeing that, I still don't like them.

Man it'd be funny if you couldn't get a job because your prospective employers all thought exactly that.

There looking the goods, im loving all of them! Can wait to se them on shelves at the LBS.
I dont know about you, but the last time i saw bikes at a bike store, they were either hung on hooks or stood with bike stands. :p

Back on topic, like gripper said not much has changed, and to an unexperienced eye; only the paint jobs have been changed. The Six is nice. :cool:

hahahahaha
good call.




So the A-line is exactly the same as the 2005 Team DH? Same geo and all?
