Are e-bikes legal in Tasmania?

Yes. All pedal-assist e-bikes up to 250W and 25 km/h assistance are legal in Tasmania.

How far can an e-bike go in Hobart?

Most riders get 50–120 km depending on hills, wind, weight and mode. Larger 600–800Wh batteries provide excellent range for local terrain.

What mountain bike is best for Tasmanian trails?

Trail and enduro bikes with 140–170mm travel and strong 4-piston brakes are ideal for Meehan Range, Glenorchy and Derby.

How often should I service my bike?

We recommend servicing every 6 months or 500 km, with more frequent checks for e-MTBs or heavily ridden bikes.

Do you service Bosch and Shimano e-bikes?

Yes. We perform diagnostics, firmware updates and battery checks on Bosch, Shimano and other major e-bike systems.

What size bike do I need?

Bike size depends on height, reach and riding style. Visit Ride Bellerive for an in-store measurement and professional fit.

2027 Norco Sight VLT CX C3

Full-power capability without the traditional e-MTB bulk

The 2027 Norco Sight VLT CX C3 combines a lightweight carbon frame, Bosch Performance Line CX power and Norco’s confidence-inspiring all-mountain geometry.

With 150mm of rear travel, a 160mm RockShox ZEB fork and mixed 29-inch front and 27.5-inch rear wheels, the Sight VLT CX C3 is built to climb efficiently, carry speed through technical terrain and remain composed when the trail gets steep.

The Bosch Performance Line CX drive system delivers smooth, responsive assistance, while the large 800Wh PowerTube battery provides the capacity needed for longer rides and bigger days in the hills. Shimano Deore 12-speed gearing, TRP four-piston brakes and a size-specific dropper post complete a capable and dependable trail build.

Powerful, Natural Assistance

The Bosch Performance Line CX motor provides strong, responsive assistance while retaining a natural pedalling feel on technical climbs and flowing singletrack.

Its compact design keeps weight centred low in the frame, helping the Sight VLT CX maintain predictable handling through corners and rough terrain.

Assistance settings, ride information and system updates can be managed through the Bosch eBike Flow app.

Bosch 800Wh Battery

A fully integrated Bosch PowerTube 800Wh battery provides the capacity required for longer trail rides, sustained climbing and full-day adventures.

The battery is protected within the downtube while remaining removable for charging or servicing. The system is also compatible with the optional Bosch PowerMore 250 range extender for riders wanting additional capacity.

Actual riding range varies with terrain, assistance mode, rider weight, elevation, temperature and riding conditions.

Carbon All-Mountain Frame

The Sight VLT CX carbon frame delivers 150mm of rear-wheel travel through Norco’s VPSHP suspension platform.

The high-pivot design is engineered to provide excellent bump absorption, braking control and stability while reducing unwanted pedal feedback through rough terrain.

Norco’s Ride Aligned™ design approach uses size-specific geometry and component dimensions to deliver balanced handling across the complete size range.

Mixed-Wheel Agility

The Sight VLT CX C3 uses a 29-inch front wheel for rollover capability and front-end confidence, paired with a 27.5-inch rear wheel for improved agility, clearance and cornering response.

This mixed-wheel configuration helps the bike remain stable at speed without losing the playful handling needed on tighter trails.

RockShox Suspension

A 160mm RockShox ZEB Select fork provides a stiff and controlled front end for technical descending, larger impacts and aggressive trail riding.

At the rear, the RockShox Super Deluxe Select HBO shock controls 150mm of travel and includes hydraulic bottom-out support for improved control through hard compressions and bigger hits.

Shimano Deore 12-Speed Drivetrain

The Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain provides reliable shifting and a wide 10–51-tooth cassette range.

The simple single-chainring setup offers low gearing for steep technical climbs while maintaining enough range for fast trail riding and descents.

TRP Four-Piston Brakes

TRP Slate EVO four-piston hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled stopping power for technical terrain and heavier e-MTB loads.

Large brake rotors improve heat management and braking consistency on sustained descents.
