DESCRIPTION
The all-new Norco Range VLT A1 is a rad all-mountain electric mountain bike designed to climb harder and faster than professional riders, and be sent down the trails like there’s no tomorrow. With a sleek all-new design and class-leading battery options, the Range VLT A1 has the kit to conquer anything you throw at it. Featuring 180mm of front travel and 170mm of rear travel, as well as a revised angle on suspension, the Range VLT is the first Norco electric mountain bike to offer Norco’s signature ride.
The first thing riders will notice is the Norco Range VLT’s low centre of gravity, which is due to the unique fork layout and shock position. The decision to engage FOX Racing during the design process has worked wonders for Norco: the FOX Performance Float 38 Fork and Fox Performance Elite DHX rear shock feature a custom tune for the Range VLT that has resulted in an active and balanced suspension. Consequently, the Norco Range VLT has a stable platform for all terrains and an incredibly efficient design that makes speed feel natural – it maintains momentum through rough, technical descents while making the most of every pedal stroke on tough climbs.
The Norco Range VLT is powered by Shimano’s latest generation motor and battery system: the EP8. It’s a real peach of a combination, with the motor re-orientated to ensure the battery, which is contained in the downtube, to easily be removed when swapping or charging off the bike. Speaking of batteries, the Norco Range VLT can accommodate 3 different and unique battery options: 540Wh, 720Wh or the extreme 900Wh capacity battery, giving you the option to change your battery depending on your riding style or needs. While the whisper-quiet Shimano EP8 motor rewards riders with instant power and torque on tap making climbs a breeze.
