• RIDER BENEFITS:

  PROGRESSIVE DESIGN: The Torrent uses Norco s holistic approach to fit and geometry to create the ultimate all-mountain hardtail experience. The unique combination of our next generation of Gravity Tune, longer reach, slacker head tube angle and steep seat tube angle provides a more forward weight distribution within a longer wheelbase. This allows more powerful pedaling, increased climbing traction and added grip and control when descending so you can confidently attack the rowdiest trails.

  EQUIPPED TO DESCEND: To support riders through the lunacy that the Torrent s inspires, each bike is equipped with 4-piston disc brakes, shorter seat tubes, long-stroke dropper posts and aggressive knobby 29er tires.

  BURLY METAL FRAME: For 2021, we decided to offer the Torrent in both steel and highly-engineered aluminum to give you some options for when you re fully committed to a burly line that you re fairly confident you can pull off. Steel has a reputation for being tough and compliant, and when it s engineered right, aluminum does, too.
