NORCO

For almost as long as Canadians have been riding bikes, Norco has been making them. Over the past four decades, Norco has been reinventing how Canadians look at bikes - and how they ride them. In order to keep ahead of the pack, we draw on the knowledge of our factory team, staff riders, and design team to create bikes that we simply love to ride.

There aren't too many places in the world where you can freeride on world-class trails, do a 200-km road ride, take a spin on cruiser-perfect cycling paths, or get dropped by a float plane into remote areas for an All Mountain epic. Our backyard is definitely our playground and our best testing facility.

You'd think that with all the possible riding opportunities available to us, nothing would ever get done. Sure, we ride...a lot...but we're equally passionate about making quality bikes for real-world trail conditions and riders. Every minute that we spend out on the road or on the dirt goes into making wise decisions on the product we build.

Just take our line-up of Supercross bikes for example. They were originally developed because a core group of staff riders would hit the park and dirt jumps every free moment they could find (including lunch hour missions to the local secret site just down the road). The same goes for our Thursday night road crew, a group that heads out for road rides through the Fraser Valley. Or, you can always look to the many Norco staff that push their big bikes to the limits out on trails from the Shore to Whistler.

If you were to ask any of these Norco staff why they do it, they'd probably just shrug and say it's because they love riding. But, it's really more than that. It's about commitment and heart. Whether it's creating award-winning bikes, bringing innovations to the industry like front-suspension geometry designs, or supporting grassroots and trail building initiatives, the folks at Norco have always maintained the same spirit - for us it's all about the ride, no compromise.

If you're not lucky enough to live in what the UN has dubbed 'the best country in the world to live in' for years on end, perhaps you can get a taste of life in the Great White North, aboard a 2007 Norco.

HISTORY
For almost as long as Canadians have been riding bikes, Norco has been making them. In 1964, Bert Lewis founded Northern Cycle Industries Ltd. with the dream of creating a Western Canadian- based bicycle company committed to quality product and outstanding customer service. Since then, Norco has grown from its humble beginnings as a couple of guys in a garage to over 150 employees in three offices across Canada. We now have two major Canadian warehouses in Vancouver and Toronto, as well as a domestic manufacturing facility and over 25 international distributors.

From the start, Bert's vision of Norco was to create a company committed to supporting your community by only selling our bikes through independent bicycle retailers who share our high standards of customer service. This means that each and every Norco bike is professionaly assembled by trained, knowledgeable sales staff who want to keep their customers satisfied, not just the day they make a purchase, but every day they own their bike.

The bicycle industry has changed dramatically since 1964. Through each stage of this change, Norco has consistently brought leading edge products with strong margins to its dealers, allowing them to stay one step ahead of the competition.

Bert still rides and runs to stay fit and healthy; he encourages his staff to do the same.
