FIRST LOOK: Norco Revolver 9.2 FS
In August last year it was obvious that Norco weren't slowing down their progress.
In August last year it was obvious that Norco weren’t slowing down their progress. They had already launched some great new trail and all-mountian bikes with the Sight and Range, and the Aurum Killer B showed their focus was on downhill too. But XC? It’s not something you would normally associate with the Canadian brand. But the new Norco Revolver 9.2 FS was turning heads, thansk to the finish, weight, ride performance, and Gravity Tune – the size specific back ends.
The 9.2 FS is a gorgeous purple-blue running just about a full XT M8000 spec, and tips the scales at a little over 11kg out of the box. Best of all, at XC bike weight it rides like a trail bike on the descents. We took it to Noosa for some testing, and Anna Beck will have the full review in Issue 152.
