Norco Threshold C Rival is a bike designed for cyclocross racing but would also be at home as an urban commuter or gravel bike. Ideal for the rider that is looking for the drop bar riding position but wants to explore places a conventional road bike can get to.
With race-proven geometry and ARC technology in a lightweight frame, the Threshold Carbon delivers podium-seeking speed along with all the versatility you expect from a cross machine. The ARC design of the frame gives good vertical compliance for a smoother and more comfortable ride.
The Sram Rival 1 drivetrain is setup for CX but also gives the right range of gears for most people urban commute. The hydraulic brakes provide exceptional stopping power in all conditions, whether it be the mud of the race track or the grime of the daily grind.
The Threshold comes equipped with tyres meant for off road use, but there is enough clearance in the frame to accommodate a wide range of tyre sizes and treads to suit most riders requirements.
The Norco Threshold C Rival is a race ready cyclocross bike with a few more tricks up its sleeve. An ideal bike to get you to the podium, or just to rip up the urban commute with confidence to ride wherever you want, when you want.
Developed amid the rugged landscape and abundant precipitation of Canada’s Pacific Coast, the new Threshold Carbon revels in the muddy mayhem of cyclocross. With race-proven geometry and ARC technology in a lightweight frame, the Threshold Carbon delivers podium-seeking speed along with all the versatility you expect from a ’cross machine.
Road Disc Brakes
Norco Bicycle Designer Terry Brown explains why disc brakes on road bikes are the future. They offer the rider better control, modulation and lever feedback, resulting in a more confident ride.
ARC Race
Applied Road Compliance (ARC) technology optimizes the vertical compliance to lateral rigidity ratio for race and endurance applications. ARC Race seat stays are slender and feature a less pronounced bow shape that still delivers effective road vibration dampening. Chain stays are broad and extremely stiff to deliver maximum pedaling efficiency, and they are engineered to be slightly shorter to deliver a highly responsive ride experience.
Power Chassis
The Power Chassis is a complete pedaling platform designed to convert energy from a rider's whole body into forward momentum. A tapered head tube, an oversized hydroformed down tube, an oversized super-stiff bottom bracket shell, and an especially broad set of chain stays, conduct energy directly from cranks through to the back wheel where they are converted into forward thrust.
Size Scaled Tubing
By increasing tube profile dimensions in proportion with frame size, Norco engineers are able to calibrate frame stiffness to the weight of the prospective rider. This ensures that a heavier rider on an extra large frame will experience the same ride characteristics as a lighter rider on a small frame.
Smooth Core
Norco's SmoothCore process enables us to maintain precision control over all of the inner surfaces of our carbon frames, which is particularly critical at complicated, high-stress areas like the head tube and bottom bracket junctions. At the heart of SmoothCore is our innovative mandrel system.
Armour Lite
Norco's carbon frames are manufactured with only the highest quality materials, right down to the resin we use to hold everything together. Our superior quality ArmorLite resin produces an exceptionally strong bond that enhances frame strength and increases impact resistance.
GIZMO
Our GIZMO internal cable routing system keeps out water and debris, prevents any rattling, and allows for easy setup and maintenance.
