Norco Optic C3
Details
The Optic C3 is an aggressive short-travel sled that rips on descents and can get back to the top without a gondola.
Steering geometry is perfect for charging descents without sacrificing precision and maneuverability on every part of your favorite high-speed rides.
The precision suspension kinematics and custom DH spec shock creates 125mm of rear travel, matched with a gravity-eating 140mm fork for the control you need to keep your mind on the trail ahead.
Four-piston 180mm disc brakes, short seat tubes, long-stroke dropper posts and aggressive knobby tires tame the wildest descents and attack every turn.
The Ride Aligned™ Design System optimizes performance using individual rider metrics, precise suspension kinematics, and proprietary app technology.
