The Sight VLT gives you more ups, more downs and more of everything else you love about riding All-Mountain.
With performance and character engineered in the backwoods of British Columbia, the new 160mm front and 150mm rear travel Sight VLT shreds more and rides longer.
The Sight VLT dials-up your ride with the lightweight, whisper-quiet Shimano EP8 drive system’s customizable torque and efficiency.
Battery capacity from 540Wh, 720Wh or massive, industry-leading 900Wh depending on how you ride. Lighter weight for speedy laps, mammoth range for epic adventures, or somewhere in between. 720Wh standard, 540Wh and 900Wh sold separately.
The Sight VLT is designed with Norco’s exclusive Ride Aligned™ Design System to create rider-first geometry and precision suspension kinematics. Custom fit and tuning with the Ride Aligned™ Setup Guide provides unparalleled, personalized performance from day one.
