Sorry to bump such an old thread but this one fits my bill. Gaz, A year on from obtaining your Norco, would you recommend the threshold A1? I'm going round in circle trying to decide which to get and the Norco looks great and is good value. I like the frame detail, colour, concealed cables etc.
It would be an all-rounder for me. Winter bike with a smidge of racing thrown in, towing a tag-along and something to go and get the fish and chips and bottle of rioja (I'm a bit posh)
Also, have you weighed it. 57cm would be the size for me too.
Cheers
