The best design and features for your ever-evolving skills.

Are you in the market for a top-tier trail bike? Look no further than the 2023 Norco Fluid FS Aluminum. You'll have the ride of your life every single day! A 6061 aluminum frame gives experienced cyclists what they need for their best performances. It also helps beginners learn the tricks of the trade.

Long-travel, size-specific dropper posts are paired with low-slung top tubes. That means plenty of room to move on the most challenging terrain. The Ride Aligned Design system accounts for every height, weight, body type, and skill level. Creating a perfect fit, dialed handling, and personalized setup for every one who gets on this bike.

Frame sizes also work with anyone 5'1" to 6'7" tall. And finally, rip-roaring 29" wheels. You can roll over obstacles and carve out your own path with total confidence. The Fluid was even named Pinkbike's Value Bike of the Year, Vital MTB's Bike of the Year, and Bicycling Magazine's Best Value Trail Bike. Need we say more?
