Review
"If you have the courage to attack unimaginable climbs and equally disconcerting chutes, the Range VLT will have your back."
- Matt Beer
The all-new Norco Range VLT A1 is a rad all-mountain electric mountain bike designed to climb harder and faster than professional riders, and be sent down the trails like there's no tomorrow. With a sleek all-new design and class-leading battery options, the Range VLT A1 has the kit to conquer anything you throw at it. Featuring 180mm of front travel and 170mm of rear travel, as well as a revised angle on suspension, the Range VLT is the first Norco electric mountain bike to offer Norco's signature ride.
The first thing riders will notice is the Norco Range VLT's low centre of gravity, which is due to the unique fork layout and shock position. The decision to engage FOX Racing during the design process has worked wonders for Norco: the FOX Factory Float 38 and DHX2 Fork feature a custom tune for the Range VLT that has resulted in an active and balanced suspension. Consequently, the Norco Range VLT has a stable platform for all terrains and an incredibly efficient design that makes speed feel natural - it maintains momentum through rough, technical descents while making the most of every pedal stroke on tough climbs.
The Norco Range VLT is powered by Shimano's latest generation motor and battery system: the EP8. It's a real peach of a combination, with the motor re-orientated to ensure the battery, which is contained in the downtube, to easily be removed when swapping or charging off the bike. Speaking of batteries, not only do you get a free, inlcuded 540Wh battery, the Norco Range VLT can accommodate 3 different and unique battery options: 540Wh, 720Wh or the extreme 900Wh capacity battery, giving you the option to change your battery depending on your riding style or needs. While the whisper-quiet Shimano EP8 motor rewards riders with instant power and torque on tap making climbs a breeze.
With the incredible tech on offer and the stiff carbon frame, Norco has specced the Range VLT A1 with Shimano Deore kit to offer a fantastic value offering that still gets the most out of the incredible EP8 motor. The Deore 12-speed cassette is optimised for climbing efficiently and still offers the mid-range gearing you need to really pump as you chase speed downhill. While 4 Piston Hydraulic Disc Brakes have been installed to give you the reassurance and confidence to remain in control regardless of your speed or terrain. With Shimano STePS 203mm e-bike specific rotors front and rear, you have incredible braking power and modulation that's been optimised for e-bikes all within reach.
The Range VLT A1 is an incredible dual suspension electric mountain bike. It'll handle everything you give it from day one and will grow with you as you become more confident. With an incredibly compliant alloy frame that soaks up bumps, a serious motor and the specs to match, the Norco Range VLT A1 Electric Mountain Bike is the ultimate electric dual suspension mountain bike. Get ready to conquer the trails every day!
Slack Geometry
The Range A1 features one of the slackest head tube angles you'll find on an Electric Dual Suspension MTB. It may seem counter-intuitive, but combined with the redesigned Range C2's progressive geometry, it results in precise high-speed handling in the roughest conditions.
NEW High Pivot Design
The pivot point is not fixed and moves as the suspension cycles, creating a rearward axle path while controlling its path through suspension travel to provide lower levels of anti-rise. This translates into a suspension set-up that carries momentum exceptionally in rough terrain, yet remains active under braking to maintain grip and control.
Long Travel Dropper Post
The Range VLT A1 features a short seat tube for maximum standover clearance, allowing size-specific, long-travel dropper posts to get seats completely out of the way in the rough stuff.
Ride aligned
Geometry and suspension kinematics have been optimised for rider comfort and feedback, while the Ride Aligned Setup Guide enables riders to custom fit and tune their set-up for unmatched performance from the first ride. With Norco's Ride Aligned System, every ride will feel like a new experience.
Optimised Running Gear
The Range VLT was designed and optimized for the Fox DHX2 shock. With a custom damping tune, mounting other shocks will negatively affect the ride quality and precision Norco have engineered-in.
Shimano ep8 & Custom Batteries
The whisper-quiet Shimano EP8 offers unrivalled performance on the trails, with torque and power on tap to help you climb steep slopes with ease. In combination with Norco's exclusive Shimano batteries, you can pick and choose the battery to fit your style or bike park: 540Wh, 720Wh or monster 900Wh capacities.
