The Norco Optic C1 Mountain Bike is the top-of-the-line in the Optic range and is an aggressive short-travel dual-suspension mountain bike that is designed to be fun and fast on the downs while still offering geometry that can get you back to the top of the trail without having to use the shuttles. Custom DH spec shocks offer 125mm of rear travel and a 140mm fork at the front will have you ripping it down the trails with amazing control. The Shimano XTR groupset provides precision shifting and reliability as you bomb down the trails, and the 12-speed 10 - 51T cassette on the rear will help make short work of those climbs back to the top of the run.
Rounding this out, the Optic C1 runs the Shimano XTR hydraulic 4-piston disc brakes to leave you in control on even the roughest of terrains. Finishing with a bang, the Optic C1 boasts a carbon front triangle and an aluminum rear to reduce weight and increase stiffness where needed, and add strength and support at the most critical locations. If you're after a bike for all-day shredding, the Norco Optic C1 truly is your perfect bike.
