The Norco Torrent is a high-performance All-Mountain hardtail that brings progressive design and modern features for an aggressive trail-riding experience. Perfect for riders who want a stable, agile ride with exceptional descending performance and climbing capability, the Torrent offers an alternative to the complexity of full-suspension bikes. It's a hardtail that challenges advanced riders while also delivering confidence to those ready to step up their trail game. Features: Progressive Design : With its slack head tube angle, steep seat tube angle, and longer reach, the Torrent maximizes rider control and weight distribution. This results in powerful pedaling and enhanced climbing traction, while offering exceptional stability when descending on technical terrain. Equipped to Descend : The bike's aggressive knobby 29" tires, 4-piston disc brakes, long-stroke dropper post, and shorter seat tube combine to give riders the confidence to tackle any downhill trail with precision and control.
