Norco has introduced the Sight VLT e-MTB.
It features a Shimano Steps E8000 drive unit and 630Wh integrated battery to give riders “the necessary boost to power up the steepest climbs”.
The drive unit and battery are enveloped in a carbon frame to create a “lightweight, stiff and low-profile e-mountain bike”.
The Sight VLT features modern all-mountain geometry with a longer wheelbase for increased stability at higher speeds and a kinematic layout for traction and grip.
It also has a steeper seat tube angle and a more forward riding position to allow riders to “punch up steep and technical climbs effortlessly”.
With 150mm of rear travel, the Sight VLT’s suspension kinematics are designed to deliver an “active pedalling platform, small bump compliance and a bottomless feel”.
The brand added: “Our main goal is to ensure riders have the best possible ride quality and experience on any of our Norco bikes.
“Setting up your bike correctly is essential when you want to get the most out of your ride.
“The Sight VLT comes with a detailed setup assistant allowing riders to set up their bike and suspension for their specific weight, morphology, terrain and personal preference.”
