    Summary

    Expirience with the Norco Storm 1

    Norco Storm 1 Review When using the bike for on sporty excursions, the Norco Hardtail with its 100 mm on the fork is totally spot on. The handling of this bike is balanced. So its pretty intuitive to control on singletrails. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Storm 1. Considering that in the range under 1000 Euro, hardly any other manufacturer makes a better bike for the same specs of wheels. Nice! A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 5 years warranty Norco sets the bar high! Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Racebike of Norco sizing runs big.
