Today, Norco just announced an all new Optic for 2020. Aimed at the trail bike category, it definitely leans in a more aggressive direction, at least in regard to spec. Every spec level features a piggy back shock – something we applaud and would like to see more of in the short travel category. Additionally, you’ll find Soft compound
Schwalbe tires on each bike as well as 4 piston brakes. Another thing that you’ll find with Norco is their scaled geometry. Unlike most manufacturers, the rear center varies by 5mm per size. Find the rest of the details in the press release below…
