Norco Sight VLT TQ C2

More Maydena Laps. Less Noise.

The Norco Sight VLT TQ C2 has landed at Ride Bellerive.

This is the mid-power eMTB built for Tassie riders who want the agility of a proper trail bike — with just enough boost to turn a “quick pedal” into an all-day epic.

Built for Meehan. Ready for Maydena.

We know Hobart riding.

Punchy climbs. Loose-over-hardpack corners. Square-edge rock hits. Long, technical descents.

The Sight VLT TQ C2 is the first e-bike that doesn’t feel like an e-bike when you’re throwing it into tight corners at Clarence MTB Park.

Why the TQ System Works in Tassie

Silent Power
The TQ HPR60 motor is so quiet you’ll hear tyres on dirt — not motor whirr.

Lightweight Feel
At approx. 20kg, it’s easy to lift, flick and manoeuvre through tight, technical sections.

Natural Support
60Nm of torque delivers smooth, trail-bike-feel assistance — like a steady tailwind up every climb.

The C2 build stands up to real Tasmanian terrain. No catalogue fluff — just proven components.

Fox 36 Performance Elite (160mm)
Fox Float X (150mm)

Why You’ll Love It

Whether you're rallying down steep chutes, pedalling into the wind on the climb, or carving your favourite trail, the Rail+ 5 Gen 5 is built to deliver. Here’s how:

• Attack the climb, dominate the descent. The Bosch system gives you the grunt you need to hit big climbs without dread — then the 160 mm suspension and aggressive geometry let you own the down.

• Adapt to your ride. Want a more playful feel or a more stable ride? Flip the chip, change the leverage rate, dial in your settings, and the bike changes character.

• Ride more, worry less. The 800 Wh battery gives you serious range, and with a removable battery design, you can charge at home, at work, or swap in a range extender for long days.

• Built rugged for real trails. The aluminium frame, internal routing, motor armour and quality components mean this bike isn’t just for show — it’s ready for serious off-road fun.

• Best value in high-end enduro e-MTBs. You get full travel, high-end suspension, Bosch smart system, and thoughtful geometry for a price point that punches above its weight.

Ideal For

• Riders looking for a full-power e-MTB capable of long all-mountain and enduro rides.

• Trail enthusiasts who demand both climbing efficiency and descending capability.

• Riders who want adjustability and geometry options to tailor their ride.
