BikeRadar

Mick Kirkman

Solid and confident once up to speed, but slow to get there and let down by its fork

Pros
  1. Frame is a good shape, with (rear) suspension that’s stable while pedalling
  2. 1x SRAM Eagle drivetrain is quiet and secure, with a wide-range cassette to aid climbing
Cons
  1. Feels heavy and is slow to get up to speed
  2. can be tough to manoeuvre when rolling with momentum
  3. Suntour fork isn’t very smooth or effective over repeated hits

Mike Kazimer

A lower price doesn't need to mean reduced performance.

Cons
  1. Could use a chainguide and a longer dropper post.
  2. There are lighter & livelier options in this travel bracket

Norco's Fluid FS A1 consumer friendly full suspension trail bike that performs well above its price point with a durable build and solid spec

BIKE Magazin

Norco's Fluid leaves an unbalanced impression. Weaknesses in the suspension and the choice of components.
