The Sight 160 is next level Ñ big travel, big spec, and ready for serious big-mountain riding. Whether you're racing an enduro stage or charging technical trails at speed, this bike is built to smash through rough terrain with confidence. Inspired by the gnarliest trails in the backwoods of British Columbia, the Sight 160 is designed for riders who demand more when the terrain gets steep, fast, and unforgiving. This build features a tougher, more aggressive spec to handle everything you throw at it. A higher rise bar, powerful metallic-pad brakes, a DoubleDown rear tyre casing, and a coil rear shock with Sprindex spring deliver the durability and control needed for hard riding. All Sight models include the OneUp EDC Lite tool, giving you essential trailside tools when you need them most. VPSHP Suspension Platform Designed around NorcoÕs VPSHP (Virtual Pivot Suspension | High Pivot) layout, the Sight increases rearward axle path to improve suspension performance in technical terrain while maintaining the lively, responsive ride feel expected from a capable all-mountain bike. With 170mm of travel up front and 160mm in the rear, the 2026 Sight blends the capability of the Range platform into a lighter, more pedal-friendly and maneuverable high-pivot design. Extensive testing with an I-Track configured idler position tunes anti-squat for pedaling efficiency and responsive power delivery. The chainstay-mounted idler helps manage chain growth and pedal kickback for smoother climbing and descending. The optional ÒMissing Link KitÓ allows riders to swap between 29" and 27.5" wheel configurations while maintaining consistent geometry and suspension kinematics.
