Norco Retains Their Award-Winning VPS Design for 2008
Port Coquitlam, BC ~ Every year, at an event or a show, at least one rider comes up and asks, why, with all the changes Norco makes to our bikes, we continue to use Horst 4-bar linkage. With so many new models and suspension designs hitting the market each year, it's a good question. However, our answer is always the same, "Because, it's still the best!"
Team DH Features:
~ Marzocchi 888 ATA fork, 200mm travel, Air Travel Adjust
~ Marzocchi Rocco World Cup rear shock with Titanium spring
~ DT Swiss 440 hubs with Laser Disc FR rims
~ Truvativ Holzfeller OCT hollow arm cranks paired with an E-13 guide
If you don't want to take our word for it, he's what Bike Magazine had to say: "The axle path is the key to a good suspension design, the 'Horst link design" creates a near vertical rear wheel axle path which all but eliminates suspension feedback and offers a smooth ride. The Horst 4-bar linkage is still the design standard to judge suspension performance by." Bike Magazine, July 05
The 2008 DH/Freeride line was designed to help riders attain three goals: speed, control, and flight. Although we improve frame design and pull together a stellar parts package every season, the core of these bikes still continues to be their unequaled Horst link 4-bar suspension design. As the highest rated Full-Suspension DH bike on MTBR.com's Reader Reviews, we're confident you'll agree.
