Description
Sight VLT TQ C3 (2026)
Be the pilot, not the passenger with the Sight VLT TQ. You get all the confidence and rough-terrain ability of the Sight platform in Norco’s lightest mid-power all-mountain eMTB yet. The result is a nimble, natural-feeling eMTB that lets you push your limits with no extra weight, no extra noise—just the good stuff.
At just 1.92 kg, the TQ HPR60 system is the lightest, quietest, and smallest in its class. With 60Nm of torque, 350W maximum power, and 200% support, it’s engineered around an optimal power-to-weight ratio and maximum efficiency. The 580Wh battery delivers higher capacity than other drive systems of its size, and with near-invisible integration and unchanged bike kinematics, you can hardly tell it’s there.
On the trail, VPSHP delivers the same confidence-inspiring suspension feel as the rest of the Sight family. It’s an ideal high pivot all-mountain setup with smooth, efficient pedaling and confident handling in rough, steeper terrain.
