Additional Info

After i found a hole in the frame after first ride on the bike and Norco told me to F off i had nothing to loose and got wrp link to change travel to 200mm. 

It is without a doubt the best bike i have ever riden. It absolutely reward fast riding on steep trails. Up to the point that my season is over in the middle of August. 

 it requires a bit of work, checking the screws and so on. Getting it ride quiet was also a challenge (still not 100%).

As you can see on some pictures the lack is peeling of with the wrap, which Norco also told me to f off.  

Yes i am running Gx/Saint, got the Saint for 30 euros but it  is not ideal for this bike because the chain stays grows 30mm with Wrp link. That means the saints clutch causing a lot of chain slap.  Shifting is Ok with 7 speed gx trigger, 7 speed xo1 cassette and 12 speed chain. 

I have very sensitive fingers (after injury), thats why the new odi vanquish grips(there is a difference). Combo with Pnw loam bar is great. One up bars are still more compliant but without Dh certification.
