The 2023 Norco Fluid FS A1 is the ultimate shredding machine, ready to handle mountains and trails all over the world at an amazing price. That’s why it’s been named the 2022 MTB of the Year by Vital MTB. And the 2022 Value Bike of the Year by Pinkbike. What makes this such an incredible riding companion, you ask?
For starters, it’s only $3,999! The heart of the bike is a 12-speed Shimano XT drivetrain, complete with a chain, cassette, and shifter. You get a 140mm fork with a FOX Factory 34 Grip 2 fork, and 130mm rear travel with a FOX Float X Performance Elite Shock. TRP Trail EVO four-piston brakes deliver phenomenal stopping power in all situations.
The Fluid also comes with a 203mm front rotor when most bikes in its category have a 180mm version. This feature unlocks incredible capabilities for long, steep descents. Each frame size comes with a different dropper – 150mm for small, 170mm for medium and large, and 200mm for extra-large and extra-extra large.
The Ride Aligned system provides size-specific chainstay lengths and seat tube angles for every size. Finally, 29″ front and rear tires provide ultimate speed, precision, and ground clearance. Check out the fun green-grey color, along with the geometry and performance specs.
