2023 Norco Bigfoot VLT

[NickJ]

Took delivery of new bike today. First spin was great. Looking forward to more rides in future. So far I recommend.

Oh wow, awesome! you are the first I've seen to get one. My local shop is telling me it will be next winter before I get one.

I'm now riding a Giant (for sale) and thinking about getting a Norco VLT trail bike with the idea of also getting a Norco Bigfoot VLT. It was a huge selling point to going Norco -- I was going to get two different sizes batteries and loved the idea of having some swappable parts.

So jealous! I want this bike so bad but unable to find one. Sweet photo!

I think the fat bikes are being shipped as we speak. My local store in Lethbridge received their order last week. Keep checking.

JeepingNet, I like your idea of having the two batteries and swapping as you need them.

Also guys, Norco has 20% off their batteries this week.

Hi Will I Am. I went with the 900. It was only 700ish grams heavier than the 720, and with fat tire’s being less efficient, I figured that’s the one to buy. The LBS confirmed my thoughts. They also gave me 20 % discount on the battery - so make sure you get that same deal as it applies this week. Let me know if you want me to attach a screen shot (if I can figure out how).
I wasn’t aware of a possible battery issue on the 900. Too late now. It’ll be under warranty for a while and hope for the best.

I rec’d the email directly from Norco. Weirdly enough, when I clicked on it today, it went to ‘page not found’. Hope they honour this discount for you.

Have fun, then next winter let's upgrade you to full suspension on the one and only eSummit!

Hi lamerecycles. That’s an excellent bike and I would’ve preferred full suspension. I’ve checked out your website many times. Sadly, it’s beyond my price range - not helped at all by the Canadian dollar exchange rate.

I tried to order the 2023 Big Foot VLT and was told none are available in the U.S. I've been trying to get one of these since 2019. I will try again in 2024.

The 20% off is valid on the US site and US bikes but not the Bigfoot. from what I could see. I need an extra 500 wh battery for my 2021 Bigfoot. I'll cal the shop and see if they will honor it. I just bought my 2021 new a few weeks ago.

I'm pretty pumped I just found a 2023 Bigfoot VLT 1 with a 900wh battery!
