Expirience with the Norco Fluid FS A3

Norco Fluid FS A3 Review The Fluid is the box office hit of Norco. So it's no surprise that the Canadians are now bringing out a carbon version of the ever-popular all-mountain. Where only the main frame is made of carbon. The four-bar linkage rear remains aluminum, even on the top model. The Fluid FS A3 is also quite practical in other respects: UDH derailleur hanger, space for two large water bottles in the frame, robust frame protectors and a cable routing that does not go through the headset show that the Norco will remain down-to-earth in 2024. The flat 65 degree head tube angle of the Norco Fully oozes self-assurance, especially in challenging terrain. The seating position of the on demanding single tracks moves in a moderate range between sporty and comfortable. The way to the summit is not one of the strengths of this bike. The guarantee of 5 years proves that Norco is behind its products.
