Introducing the new Norco Torrent DH

No BS. Just Ride.

Serious bike, better stories. The Torrent DH is built for riders who
live for lift service, shuttle laps, and the feeling of dropping into
a trail that pushes back, whether you want to throw shapes on
A-Line or race between the tape.
200 mm of travel in a straight-up, no-nonsense package made
to take a beating and keep coming back for more. It has a tough
aluminum frame with size-specific geometry designed around
dual crown forks and a mixed wheel setup — giving you the
confidence to corner harder, brake later, and ride longer without
worrying about anything but the next lap.

The seasons are changing, the trails are getting wetter, and now might be the perfect time to look at swapping your MTB tyres to something more suited to winter conditions.

A more aggressive tread pattern can make a huge difference when it comes to grip, braking control and cornering confidence through mud, wet roots and loose terrain. Whether you’re chasing extra traction for trail riding or looking for more confidence on race day, the right tyre setup can completely change how your bike feels over winter.

We stock a huge range of Maxxis MTB tyres in store, with options to suit everything from fast rolling trail bikes through to aggressive enduro setups.

Not sure where to start? Drop into the store and we can help you find the right tyre for your riding style and conditions.
