The 2026 Norco Sight VLT TQ (Gen 4): Full Details & Specs
Be the Pilot, Not the Passenger.
Be the pilot, not the passenger. The 2026 Norco Sight VLT TQ Gen 4 brings all the confidence and rough-terrain ability of the Sight to Norco's incredibly light all-mountain eMTB. Looks, feels and rides like a pedal bike, with a secret rocket booster.
The Sight VLT TQ features the TQ HPR60 drive unit, the smallest system in its class with the highest torque for its size. It packs 60Nm of torque, 350W of maximum power, and 200% pedal assist support, all in a 1.92kg package. The near-invisible integration keeps the Sight's kinematics unchanged, so it rides like a best-in-class analog bike, with a boost when you want it. Add the optional 160Wh Range Extender for even more trail time.
Underneath, the Sight VLT TQ shares the VPSHP high-pivot suspension as other the Sight models, tuned with i-track idler technology for smooth, efficient pedalling and stable handling as the trail gets rough. A mixed-wheel configuration and size-specific rear centre lengths and seat tube angles keep the ride balanced and consistent across all five frame sizes.
The Sight VLT TQ Gen 4 is available in three builds, C1, C2, and C3.
