British Columbia’s Norco Bikes releases a new Bosch-powered eMTB based on their high-pivot Sight VLT suspension platform. The new Norco Sight VLT CX all-mountain eMTB is part of their continuing innovation in their VLT line. But, you’ll have to wait until Spring 2025. Sorry, kids.

Using the updated Bosch Performance Line CX system, the new Sight VLT CX claims to be almost 20% lighter than the previous models. The updated CX Line also sports a larger battery and reduced riding noise. But, it’s said to still deliver the same torque and power the Bosch CX system is known for.

Norco says that the Sight VLT CX’s rearward axle path, idler, and unique VPS suspension layout “gives riders the stability and control they need as trails get tougher.” The high-pivot layout combined with 160/150mm travel is also meant to keep a “snappy playfulness” to the ride.

The Sight VLT CX uses size-specific rear-centers, so the geometry keeps uncompromised kinematics. Norco also utilizes size-specific chainstay lengths, though a full geometry chart is not yet available.

The bike will be available in three different models, so you can pick out the best build spec for your needs. Check the link below for more info when available.

High pivot bikes make a ton of sense for EMTB. The loss in pedal efficiency is more than made up for by the motor and descending is greatly improved.
