The Sight 160 is next level - big travel, big spec, and ready for big mountain riding. Whether you're out racing an enduro or love going fast on technical trails, this is your bike to blow through the chunder. Inspired by the gnarliest trails in the backwoods of BC, built for riders living in areas where the terrain demands more out of the bike they ride.
Sight 160 is an all-round beefier build to handle everything you throw down. We've stepped up on spec to help you handle more; a 35mm rise bar, big name brakes with metallic pads, Double Down rear tire casing, and coil rear shock with Sprindex spring to ride hard. All Sight models also now include the OneUp EDC lite tool to have you covered on the trail.
Geometry: With stabilized rear centres and seat tube angles varied by frame size to ensure consistent rider weight distribution and shorter seat tubes with long dropper posts keep the saddle out of the way on technical descents the Sight is known for, the Sight 160 features a slacker headtube angle and a slightly taller bottom bracket than our standard Sight geometry to accommodate all the G's you push and obstacles you roll.
Suspension: Bigger, steeper, better, badder - we've taken the confidence-inspiring stability of a Sight and made it more. Supported up front with a 170mm fork and in the rear with a longer 65mm stroke shock for 160mm; giving the Sight all you need for attacking tech and rougher, BC-inspired trails.

Beyond the Expected.
Revolver 130 sets the bar for what a Cross-Country bike can do. With 130 mm of front travel and 120 mm at the rear, it's fast, efficient, and capable. The Revolver is the lightest full-suspension frame Norco has ever built, with a surprising amount of capability.
At the core of its efficiency is our advanced approach to a Flex-Pivot suspension design. With aggressive XC geometry and a carbon frame layup optimized for each frame size to enhance stiffness and compliance, Revolver maintains consistent kinematic and weight distribution across all sizes. It's a strong foundation for any rider to drive up and charge down, beyond the expected.
Quick and snappy on acceleration, whether you're going up or ready to rip down, its suspension performance is well beyond what you can expect from a shorter travel bike. Head out for epic days, attack climbs, and crush descents, while cruising through the singletrack; it's the best choice for stage races or all-day adventures.
SUSPENSION TRAVEL
Precision and control for all-day efficiency.
130 mm of travel in the front and 120 mm of travel in the rear delivers lightweight, precise, efficiency whether you’re sprinting out of the saddle or holding your line on a rough descent.
FLEX-PIVOT SUSPENSION
At the core of its efficiency is Norco’s advanced approach to Flex-Pivot suspension design. This suspension layout gives us improved performance out of the lightweight, inline XC air shocks we're spec'ing that rivals the suspension sensitivity that would typically be reserved only for heavier and larger volume air shocks. Combined with consistent anti-squat and carefully tuned leverage curve progression, this platform gives Revolver an excellent balance of efficiency and technical capability.
PERFORMANCE TUNED SUSPENSION
Customized suspension development to support Revolver's best attributes.
Done right, an XC bike doesn’t need a firm compression tune to feel efficient. For the Revolver 130, we worked with RockShox on a SIDLuxe tune with custom machined internals that improve shock sensitivity and enhance your ride through technical terrain. All this involving hours in the lab and endless laps on trail before we were satisfied, so that you can achieve optimal support, power transfer, and ride feel, wherever you ride.
LIGHT AND DURABLE
A lightweight frame that encourages putting the hammer down.
450g lighter than the previous generation, Revolver 130 is more than ready for the demands of the rowdiest cross country racing. The raw or tinted clear coat paint is half the weight of standard paint, while titanium hardware, compact double-row Enduro bearings, and compact links enhance durability and precision.
GEO TO MEET MODERN XC DEMANDS
Consistent weight distribution across all sizes.
The Revolver 130 has a 66.5-degree headtube angle and seat tube angles that steepen per frame size. Stabilized rear centres also grow per size, for balanced weight distribution and a confident ride across sizing. The frame carbon layup was optimized per frame size for stiffness and compliance, giving you a strong foundation for driving up and charging down. Size 2–Size 5 frames accommodate two water bottles, and all sizes feature long dropper post compatibility for maximum descending capability.
SIMPLIFIED MAINTENANCE
Keeping your bike out of the shop and on the trails.
Internal cable guide tubes offer easy cable routing and no headset cable routing complication. An industry standard threaded bottom bracket was used for easy maintenance and frames offer UDH compatibility for the new universal derailleur hanger. Revolver also comes with an ISCG05 chainguide mount, giving riders the option to fit a small chainguide onto the frame.
RIDE ALIGNED™
Setup like a pro.
Our industry-leading Ride Aligned™ Setup Guide is all about creating the best rider experience. Using a simple and incredibly precise process, it tunes your unique settings based on your body makeup and the way you ride.
NO OTHER WAY LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Revolver’s durable frame design, hardware and component decisions have been made specifically to keep you on the trail for longer. Accidents can happen, and when they do, our No Other Way Limited Lifetime Guarantee is our promise to get you back on the trail as soon as possible.

A steep 76.5-degree seat tube angle and consistent cockpit sizing makes for a comfortable pedaling position, while the moderate bottom bracket height provides stability at speed without sacrificing pedaling performance in technical sections. The long front center provides stability in extreme terrain while the short 432 mm chainstays make for nimble handling in tight situations.
Flip Chip 2.0
Integrated into the shock link mount, Flip Chip 2.0 allows simple, quick adjustments to bottom bracket height and head tube angle to account for the rider’s personal preference, terrain, or wheel size and tire diameter.
EPS Carbon Main Triangle with Carbon Seatstays and Aluminum Chainstays
EPS construction allows for greater manufacturing control, smooth surfacing, a simplified bottom bracket junction, and an integrated shock mount. Carbon fiber material offers improved stiffness, better vibration damping, excellent toughness and weight savings compared to other materials. 6066-T6 aluminum heat-treated chainstays add durability.
Top Tube Accessory Mounts
Top tube mounts accommodate K-Edge Top Tube Mount for bike computers or the Salsa EXP Series Direct Mount Top Tube Bag.
Down Tube Three-Pack Mounts
Three-Pack mounts on down tube accommodate a large water bottle on the lower pair and a frame-mounted pump bracket on the upper pair.
Integrated Repair Kit Location
Located in front of the rear shock in the front triangle, we provide a dedicated place for a small repair kit, tube, or bag of gummies. No more loading up your pockets or strapping the essentials to random spots on the frame and damaging the frame finish. Carbon frames feature an integrated reinforced slot and frame protection. Aluminum frames feature a machined strap slot. The slot is sized to accommodate most 3/4"- to 1"-wide straps. A Salsa Tube Strap is included with each frame (Salsa Tube Straps are for use with tubes only)
Accommodates a 26 oz Bottle
All Blackthorn sizes accept a standard 26 oz water bottle within the front triangle.
Internal Sleeved Cable Routing
Internal tubes guide housing through the frame, simplifying setup and maintenance, and creating a clean bike profile.
Molded Frame Protection
Molded rubber down tube, seat tube, chainstay, and seatstay guards protect your frame from impacts and abrasion.
Chain Guide-Compatible
Blackthorn frames feature ISCG-05 mounts for chain guides (removable on carbon frames).
Stealth Dropper Post Routing
Compatible with 30.9mm dropper posts for true trail bike performance.
MULLET BUILD COMPATIBILITY
Mullet build compatibility lets riders run a 29" wheel in the front and a 27.5" wheel in the back with minimal impacts to geometry.

The Sight 160 is next level - big travel, big spec, and ready for big mountain riding. Whether you're out racing an enduro or love going fast on technical trails, this is your bike to blow through the chunder. Inspired by the gnarliest trails in the backwoods of BC, built for riders living in areas where the terrain demands more out of the bike they ride.
New Technology: Sight 160 is an all-round beefier build to handle everything you throw down. We've stepped up on spec to help you handle more; a 35mm rise bar, big name brakes with metallic pads, Double Down rear tire casing, and coil rear shock with Sprindex spring to ride hard. All Sight models also now include the OneUp EDC lite tool to have you covered on the trail.
Geometry: With stabilized rear centres and seat tube angles varied by frame size to ensure consistent rider weight distribution and shorter seat tubes with long dropper posts keep the saddle out of the way on technical descents the Sight is known for, the Sight 160 features a slacker headtube angle and a slightly taller bottom bracket than our standard Sight geometry to accommodate all the G's you push and obstacles you roll.
Suspension: Bigger, steeper, better, badder - we've taken the confidence-inspiring stability of a Sight and made it more. Supported up front with a 170mm fork and in the rear with a longer 65mm stroke shock for 160mm; giving the Sight all you need for attacking tech and rougher, BC-inspired trails.
