Looking for a full suss and amongst a few that have been offered are the above 2 bikes. I know nothing of the Pace other than it is specc'd very well and well maintained but have no idea what it rides like. Anyone had experience of Norco fluid 7.1 2015 model? Thanks

Hi
I had a Pace 506 and they are really not nice and ride beautifully.
Not that pretty but if you don't mind that then it's no biggie.
Mine had a DT Swiss shock and there was talk that this was designed around the frame (or the other way round) can't remember which but later models had a different (cheaper) shock option so you might have a read up on that.
It's a lot of bike though and I ended up not riding mine much so got rid but not really sure why.
Would happily have another if I found a well speccd one for a good price. In fact the Pace 405 winks at me from time to time
Can't comment on the Norco
Cheers
Steve

The Pace comes with a dt swiss e220 shock which i think is original. Yeah its not the best looking thing there but not too fussed.

Anyone got an idea of sizing on Norco bikes?

Fluid's an xc bike innit, bit different to a 506 (more all mountain)?
