Sasquatch components
Fork
The Sasquatch comes factory-installed with the RockShox Sektor fork. This has a travel range of 140mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Wheels
The wheels on Sasquatch are the 26″ aluminum type. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Norco Sasquatch is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
