27.5 plus

Lol I got the 7.1 version of that today
Previous to that was the stumpjumper fsr comp 6fattie
Scott scale 710 plus
Cannondale beast of the East 3 2016
So on my forth plus bike now and wouldn't have anything smaller
With regards to the norco the grips are utter crap so replace them fast and the saddle didn't suit me
Besides that seems well made with quality kit (my cannondale had the same raidon forks and we're ok to be fair)
Also the frame seems smaller than normal so I went up a size and fits well
 
Re:

Sounds positive then. Tyre prices don't seem that expensive if I fancy changing them.

Did you find Evans ok to deal with?
 
My local Evans have been great to deal with (I had the Scott and the stumpjumper from them too)
As for.tyres the nobby nics that come.on the norco are a great plus tyre
Only downside to them is there soft and slightly more prone to puncture
If you want a beefier tyre the maxxis is the one but carries a significant weight penalty over the nics
 
Re:

How tall are you and what size did you go for?
My local Evans is Cheltenham, seem OK to deal with although the sales man didn't know the plastic cap on the seat tube was for a stealth dropper!
 
I'm 6'2 went for the xl normally I run a large
I'll be selling the dropper off mine if you get the 7.2 and want a.dropper ;-)
I want to run a saddle bag so going to put a traditional seatpost in mine

Will this frame take a tapered fork? Can I convert this hub to bolt through?
