Climb mountains, ride trails, and most importantly ÃÂ get out there and go further. The updated Charger returns as a staple in the Norco lineup, delivering capable trail performance in a durable and affordable hardtail platform. Built for riders who want to leave the pavement behind, the Charger is ready to explore dirt roads, singletrack, and everything in between.
The Charger features a modern aluminum frame with smooth welding, internal cable routing, and a tapered headtube for improved steering precision and front-end stiffness. A forged bottom bracket yoke increases strength while allowing extra tyre clearance for confident trail riding.
With modern trail geometry including a 65á headtube angle, short 435mm chainstays, and a low standover design, the Charger provides stable descending and efficient climbing. Multiple frame sizes ensure riders of all heights can enjoy the confidence and capability this hardtail brings to the trail.
