Brand new Norco Vesta single speed belt drive disc brake cyclocross bike.
Bike comes brand new, complete, and ready to ride. Really sharp looking
bike built from Reynolds 520 tubing. Size is 18" (58cm top tube, compact
geometry with a 46cm seat tube, 14cm headtube, and a 29" stand over.

One of the coolest things about this bike is the ability to run it as a SS
belt drive, internally geared belt drive or with gears and derailleurs.
This is seriously one of the versatile bikes out there- use it as a race
machine, an adventure touring bike or a weatherproof, ultra-simple, nearly
maintenance-free commuter with a silky smooth ride. Frame has bottle cage
mounts, mounts for front and rear fenders and mounts for racks.

What does belt drive mean? Well it means no more chain replacing (the Gates
carbon belt will go for thousands of miles), no more grease on your leg or
pants, no noise, and no need to lube a chain ever again. Easy maintenance
with reliable functionality.

I won this bike while at Single Speed Cyclocross World Championship last
year and it has been sitting in a box for nearly a year. As much as I have
tried to convince myself otherwise, it is way too small for me. Get
yourself an awesome brand new bike at the price of used bike.
