[b]Extra Info:[/b] I have for sale my beloved 2008 Norco 6.
- OVERVIEW - It was originally a Six 2, but not happy with the original colour I painted the frame in a Pearl yellow, Pearl white and black colour scheme. The frame was stripped back to bare metal, then using one of the best Automotive two pack (PPG brand) paint, I started with a 2K aluminium specific etch primer, then proceeded with the process. It's finished in PPG's Ceramic clear. The same clear used on Mercedes and other top marques. So rest assured it's a top class paint job. It does have a few scratches from use as most mountain bikes do, either from transport or riding. But all are very superficial and nothing that impedes on the frame. The frame itself is in perfect condition, no cracks, dents or any damage. All of the bearings in the frame are brand new and are Nachi branded double sealed, they have been in the bike for about 6 months and in that time I've only done maybe 80kms. The drivetrain has some wear, but it performs flawlessly. Shifting is precise and immediate.
You will not be disappointed with this bike, it performance is amazing. It absorbs anything you throw at it and begs for more! The bike has been used for trail and All mountain riding. It's such a shame that I have to sell it, but my riding has taken a turn more towards Cross country enduro riding. This bike has been ridden maybe three or four times in the last 10 months and that was due to my XC bike getting work done on it.
The bike has been extremely well looked after. Always cleaned and maintained above and beyond what is required. You will not be disappointed!!!
