Product Info
Mountain biking has come a long way in the last few years. Super slack headtube angles, longer wheelbases, meaty 29" tires, and limitless squish have revolutionized the downhill and made it easier than ever to get back up for another lap. The Norco Torrent HT S2 Complete Mountain Bike takes this progression and slaps it on a good old fashioned chromo steel hardtail frame, making for one of the rowdiest rides you're likely to encounter this side of 2010. With grippy, top-of-the-line Maxxis tires and impressive spec throughout, this is a riot of a bike you can take to any trail with supreme confidence.

Used For
Trail Trail bikes are the quintessential “mountain bikes.” If you’re heading into the woods expecting to do it all on two wheels – climbing, technical sections, AND fun descents – you’re looking for a trail bike.

Suspension:
Hardtail

Suspension
Hardtail As the name suggests, hardtail bikes feature a rigid frame with front suspension only. This means that the rear wheel lacks any form of suspension, hence the term "hardtail."
Hardtail mountain bikes are renowned for their efficiency in transferring power from the pedals to the rear wheel, making them excellent choices for climbing and maintaining speed on smoother trails or paved surfaces.
