Lightweight Agility Meets Bosch Electric Power
Take your trail riding to the next level with the Norco Fluid VLT C1 Electric Mountain Bike. Finished in a sleek Silver colourway, the Fluid VLT C1 combines a lightweight carbon frame, premium Fox suspension, SRAM wireless shifting and the advanced Bosch Performance Line SX electric drive system to create a fast, responsive and natural-feeling e-MTB.
Designed around Norco's Ride Aligned™ Design System, the Fluid VLT delivers playful, confidence-inspiring handling with size-specific geometry and suspension performance. Its mixed-wheel setup pairs a 29" front wheel with a 27.5" rear, giving you excellent rollover capability and stability at the front while keeping the rear end agile and manoeuvrable on technical trails.
Natural Trail Performance
The Norco Fluid VLT has been engineered to feel as close to a traditional mountain bike as possible while giving you the added power of an electric motor. Its lightweight construction and carefully balanced geometry create a reactive, playful ride that's equally at home climbing technical sections or descending demanding trails.
The carbon frame features 140mm of rear travel, paired with a 150mm Fox 36 Performance Elite fork, giving the Fluid VLT C1 the capability to tackle challenging terrain while maintaining efficient and predictable handling.
Norco's Ride Aligned™ Trail geometry incorporates size-specific rear-centre lengths and seat tube angles, helping ensure each frame size delivers a balanced riding position and consistent handling.
Bosch Performance Line SX – Powerful, Lightweight Assistance
At the heart of the Fluid VLT C1 is the Bosch Performance Line SX drive unit, delivering up to 55Nm of torque and 600W of peak power in an exceptionally compact and lightweight package.
The Bosch SX system is designed to provide a natural and intuitive riding experience, with reduced pedal resistance when riding without assistance and a crank stance that feels close to a conventional mountain bike.
Power comes from a Bosch CompactTube 400Wh battery, fully integrated into the frame to keep weight low and handling predictable. The battery can be removed for servicing and replacement, while the Fluid VLT is also compatible with an optional Bosch 250Wh PowerMore range extender, providing additional range for longer rides.
The Norco/Bosch eBike Flow App allows you to customise your riding experience, monitor ride statistics, plan routes, manage assistance settings and keep track of maintenance.
Premium Fox Suspension
The Fluid VLT C1 is equipped with a high-performance Fox 36 Performance Elite 150mm fork and Fox FLOAT X2 Performance Elite rear shock. Together with Norco's Ride Aligned™ suspension design and precision-tuned Horst Link kinematics, the suspension system provides excellent traction, control and pedal efficiency across a wide variety of trail conditions.
SRAM X0 Eagle AXS T-Type Wireless Drivetrain
A premium SRAM X0 Eagle AXS T-Type drivetrain provides precise, reliable wireless shifting with a huge 10-52T cassette range. The SRAM Pod Ultimate Controller and X0 Eagle rear derailleur offer smooth gear changes and the range needed for steep climbs and fast trail riding.
Stopping power comes from SRAM Code Silver Stealth four-piston brakes, matched with 200mm front and 180mm rear Centerline rotors for strong, controlled braking when the trails get steep.
Mixed Wheels for Balanced Trail Handling
The Fluid VLT C1 uses a 29" front and 27.5" rear wheel configuration. The larger front wheel helps the bike maintain momentum and roll smoothly over roots, rocks and technical obstacles, while the smaller rear wheel creates a more agile and playful feel.
Crank Brothers Synthesis Alloy Enduro e-bike wheels are fitted with Continental Kryptotal 29 x 2.4" Trail front and Continental Xynotal 27.5 x 2.4" Trail rear tyres, providing dependable grip and control on demanding off-road terrain.
