NORCO 250

Norco 250 – Reviewed

Dirt Jumping!!! Thats right, you have to speak with exclamation points when talking about it, and especially if it includes the 2010 Norco 250!! Between the TWO50  Chromoly steel and the Intense Micro Knobby tires, this get up makes the jump transitions feel smoother than DJ Numark, Premier and Cut Chemist. Accompanying the awesome steel frame is the Rockshox Argyle 302 Coil 100, a set of purple Alienation PBR wheels, Avid Juicy 3’s and the Pivotal seat post and seat.  This purple people eater sends it better than Bigfoot in a southern monster truck show, and with even better steez. The integrated seat post clamp, new cable guides and awesome purple color scheme make this bike a contender for anyone in the dirt jumper market. After months of dirt jump abuse, the Norco 250 has handled the best of it, from long Galbraith MTN rides down U-Line, to DJ sessions that seem endless. For anyone out there looking for a great and cost effective Dirt Jumper, the 250 may be the bike your looking for.

Impressed

This thing floats! I took one of these bad-boys out to the dirt jump park for my first taste of dirt jumping and was amazed. The amount of pop off the lip of the jumps and the ease of maneuverability in the air and on the dirt, especially for a beginner/intermediate rider, was incredible. I highly recommend getting your hands on one of these!

Warning: it is very easy to get comfortable with this bike and end up face first in a tranny after going over the bars. Stay tuned for my review on the brain-bucket that saved my melon!
