Norco Revolver C SE 120Revolver is the lightest full-suspension frame Norco has ever built, with a surprising amount of capability. At the core of its efficiency is our advanced approach to a Flex-Pivot suspension design.
With aggressive XC geometry and a carbon frame layup optimized for each frame size to enhance stiffness and compliance, Revolver maintains consistent kinematic and weight distribution across all sizes. It’s a strong foundation for any rider to drive up and charge down, beyond the expected.
Revolver C SE 120 sets the bar for what a Cross-Country bike can do. With 120 mm of front travel and 115 mm at the rear, it's fast, efficient, and capable.
Quick and snappy on acceleration, whether you're going up or ready to rip down, its suspension performance is well beyond what you can expect from a shorter travel bike. Head out for epic days, attack climbs, and crush descents, while cruising through the singletrack; it's the best choice for stage races or all-day adventures.
Suspension Travel
At the core of its efficiency is Norco’s advanced approach to Flex-Pivot suspension design. This suspension layout gives us improved performance out of the lightweight, inline XC air shocks we're spec'ing that rivals the suspension sensitivity that would typically be reserved only for heavier and larger volume air shocks. Combined with consistent anti-squat and carefully tuned leverage curve progression, this platform gives Revolver an excellent balance of efficiency and technical capability.

Performance Tuned Suspension
Done right, an XC bike doesn’t need a firm compression tune to feel efficient. For the Revolver 120, we worked with RockShox on a SIDLuxe tune with custom machined internals that improve shock sensitivity and enhance your ride through technical terrain. All this involving hours in the lab and endless laps on trail before we were satisfied, so that you can achieve optimal support, power transfer, and ride feel, wherever you ride.
Light and Durable
450g lighter than the previous generation, Revolver 120 is more than ready for the demands of the rowdiest cross country racing. The raw or tinted clear coat paint is half the weight of standard paint, while titanium hardware, compact double-row Enduro bearings, and compact links enhance durability and precision.
Geo to meet modeern XC demands
Cross Country riding isn't just flowy bench cuts anymore, you need a bike that's ready to take on the trail. The Revolver 120 has a 66.5-degree headtube angle and seat tube angles that steepen per frame size. Stabilized rear centres also grow per size, for balanced weight distribution and a confident ride across sizing. The frame carbon layup was optimized per frame size for stiffness and compliance, giving you a strong foundation for driving up and charging down. Size 2–Size 5 frames accommodate two water bottles, and all sizes feature long dropper post compatibility for maximum descending capability.
Simplified maintanance
Internal cable guide tubes offer easy cable routing and no headset cable routing complication. An industry standard threaded bottom bracket was used for easy maintenance and frames offer UDH compatibility for the new universal derailleur hanger. Revolver also comes with an ISCG05 chainguide mount, giving riders the option to fit a small chainguide onto the frame.
