Take on the toughest trails with the Norco Sight A2 29/27.5" Mountain Bike in Rust Red. Built for aggressive trail riding and enduro adventures, the Sight 160 combines big-travel suspension, confidence-inspiring geometry and a carefully selected component package to create a mountain bike that's ready to charge through technical terrain.
Inspired by the demanding backcountry trails of British Columbia, the Norco Sight 160 is designed for riders who want to push their limits on steep, rough and technical trails. With 170mm of front suspension and 160mm of rear travel, this is a bike built to absorb big hits, maintain control through rough sections and encourage you to ride faster when the trail gets challenging.
Enduro Performance & Big-Mountain Capability
At the heart of the Sight A2 is its lightweight and durable aluminium frame, featuring Norco's Ride Aligned™ design philosophy. The frame is engineered to provide balanced weight distribution across the different frame sizes, helping deliver a consistent and predictable ride feel.
The Sight's enduro-focused geometry combines a slack head angle with a slightly taller bottom bracket, providing additional stability and clearance when tackling steep descents, technical climbs and unpredictable trail features. Stabilised rear centres and proportional rear ends help maintain consistent rider positioning, while the steepening seat tube angles across sizes ensure the bike remains balanced for efficient climbing.
The RockShox ZEB Select Charger RC 170mm fork up front works alongside a RockShox Vivid Coil Select+ rear shock with a Sprindex spring and 160mm of rear travel. This suspension combination provides the control and support needed when attacking technical trails and rough, fast descents.
Mullet Wheel Setup
The Norco Sight A2 uses a 29" front wheel and 27.5" rear wheel, combining the rollover capability and stability of a larger front wheel with the agility of a smaller rear wheel.
Up front, a Maxxis Assegai 29 x 2.5" tyre with 3C MaxxGrip and EXO+ casing provides exceptional traction and confidence when cornering or braking hard. At the rear, a Maxxis Minion DHR II 27.5 x 2.4" with 3C MaxxGrip and DD casing delivers dependable grip and durability when the trail gets rough.
Shimano Deore 12-Speed Drivetrain
The Sight A2 is equipped with a reliable Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain, featuring a 10-51T cassette and 32T chainring. The wide-range gearing provides plenty of options for climbing steep gradients before turning your attention to the descent.
Stopping power comes from Shimano Deore MT520 four-piston hydraulic disc brakes, paired with large 203mm front and 180mm rear rotors. This combination delivers the powerful and controlled braking performance expected from a modern enduro mountain bike.
Trail-Ready Details
Norco has equipped the Sight A2 with a range of practical features designed specifically for aggressive trail riding. A proprietary chain guide and idler design helps keep the drivetrain secure over rough terrain, while the integrated OneUp EDC tool means essential trail-side adjustments are always close at hand.
The frame also features a UDH and hangerless interface, while compatibility with Norco's Missing Link Kit allows for wheel-size conversion when required.
With a TranzX YSI160 RAD+ dropper post, the saddle can quickly be lowered for steep descents, giving you additional freedom of movement when tackling technical sections.
