This Mid-Power eMTB Might Be the Perfect Trail Bike (Norco Sight VLT TQ Review)
Today we’re reviewing the Norco Sight VLT TQ, Norco’s lightweight mid-power trail eMTB built around the TQ HPR60 motor. This bike is all about a natural ride feel, low noise, and real trail capability — and after putting it through its paces, we think it’s one of the most compelling mid-power eMTBs we’ve tested.
In this review we cover:
– Norco Sight VLT TQ ride impressions (climbing + descending)
– Why the TQ HPR60 is one of the quietest e-bike motors on the market
– How this bike compares to the full-power Norco Sight VLT CX (Bosch) in feel, stability, and playfulness
– Norco’s high-pivot / idler suspension design and why it helps with traction, smoothness, and pedal kickback
– Key spec highlights like Fox Performance Elite suspension (36 + Float X), Shimano XT 4-piston brakes, and Shimano wireless Di2 shifting
– Battery and range talk: 580Wh internal battery plus optional 160Wh range extender
– Who this bike is best for: riders coming from full-power eMTBs, analog mountain bikes, and newer riders who want confidence without “too much bike”
