2023 Norco Sight X0 Transmission Custom

The 2023 Norco Sight X0 Transmission Custom is built to handle tough, technical trails without missing a beat. Its carbon frame, combined with aluminum chainstays, gives you a bike that feels both strong and nimble. You get 150mm of rear suspension travel that soaks up bumps while keeping your ride stable. Norco has included their Ride Aligned™ system, which fine-tunes the bike’s geometry based on your setup for better handling. You can pick either 27.5" or 29" wheels, depending on how you like to ride. Each option changes the bike’s feel in a noticeable way.

Up front, the RockShox Lyrik Ultimate fork provides 160mm of travel with adjustments for compression and rebound. It smooths out rough terrain, letting you charge downhill confidently. The Lyrik Ultimate is a versatile high-end fork with legendary performance. It features high tunability, a low friction design, a sturdy 35mm chassis, ButterCups that block 20% of high-frequency “trail chatter” vibrations, and a DebonAir+ air spring for a butterlike small bump feel. In the back, the Fox Factory FLOAT X2 shock gives you nuanced control over small bumps and big hits by adjusting high and low-speed compression and rebound settings. This keeps the rear suspension reactive without feeling harsh or wallowy.

Shifting gears is effortless with the SRAM X0 T-Type wireless drivetrain. It stays precise, no matter how hard you're pushing, which makes climbing steep or technical sections less stressful. The X0 T-Type Pod Controller puts smooth shifting control right at your fingertips. The combination of the X0 derailleur, a wide 10-52t cassette, and a Flattop chain means you have reliable gears ready for everything from slow climbs to fast descents. The SRAM DUB bottom bracket adds durability for aggressive pedaling and efficient power transfer.

When you need to stop or scrub speed, Hayes Dominion A4 four-piston brakes provide strong, controlled braking power. They modulate well so you can dial in your speed confidently on tricky or fast terrain.

The wheelset on this bike is no afterthought. You get Reynolds Black Label carbon wheels, which bring lightweight strength and responsive handling. Industry Nine hubs offer smooth rolling and durability. Vittoria Mazza tires sized 29x2.4" front and rear give you excellent grip and durability, whether the trail is rocky, loose, or muddy.

The cockpit setup is designed for both comfort and control. The OneUp Carbon handlebar has a 35mm rise for a comfortable position without sacrificing precision. Paired with a Burgtec 50mm stem, steering feels accurate and direct. The OneUp V2 dropper post offers 210mm of travel, allowing quick seat height changes that suit aggressive riding styles. The WTB Silverado saddle completes the setup with ergonomic support designed for long hours in the saddle.

This bike isn't just suited for one type of trail. It's ready for long climbs, rocky sections, and fast descents with confidence-inspiring performance at every turn. If you want a reliable, capable all-mountain rig that'll grow with your riding skills, the 2023 Norco Sight X0 Transmission Custom deserves a look.
