When things get hairy in the deep, dark woods, Norco's Wolverine really has some claws. Its strategically shaped aluminum frame is light, and plenty tough enough to handle your biggest moves. Up front, the Marzocchi fork dishes out 120mm of smooth travel to soften up those big hits. Other highlights of this burly rig include a sweet-shifting Shimano drivetrain, powerful Tektro mechanical-disc brakes, FSA cranks with a bash guard and Kenda tires that grip all kinds of terrain.
