if you're seriously considering the norco six, it'll more than likely be a bit heavy for your liking. it's designed to be more of a freeride bike than an all around trail bike - it's basically the original fluid, but with more travel (w/6" front, 6" rear). a better bike to consider if you're looking at norco would be one of the 3 fluids. they're pretty much the same design as the six, but with lighter tubing and slightly different geometry. they also come with three chain rings as opposed to the six's double.

here's a link to the fluids if you want more info:
