More of a curiosity post than anything. Has anyone heard anything if there's going to be any updates on the '22 Bigfoots? My local dealer says they're landing in a month or so but still have no updates and there's nothing new on the Norco site. Just mainly curious to see builds, colors and prices.

in regards to the 2022 Bigfoot VLT1 fat ebike….After making enquiry at multiple retailers I found only a couple shops that seemed confident in and provided assurance that they were in fact allotted a few of the 2022 Bigfoot VLT1's....expected date is hoped/suggested to be least August to years end. Of all the shops I called there was only 2 that knew there was going to be different colours for the 2022 model. I did go forward with a deposit...both the dealer confirmed and the receipt indicated a colour change from the 2021 VLT1 Pistachio/Orange to 2022 VLT1 Black/Silver. I know nothing about these bikes, I just saw a couple out there on the snowy trails…..and was like…..I need one of those!

Wow! August to end of year is pretty crazy. I’ve been on the fence for the past two years of if/when I want to upgrade my fatty but I think I’m just going to wait it out till next season. Fingers crossed the market is less crazy then.

Super stoked with my 2021s. This is the second season on them.

Once I replaced all the SX and NX crap, things have been spectacular. More than any bike I have seen, these ones looked like they were dragged through a SRAM factory with a $hit magnet attached to them.

All good now though. I’m off for 5 straight weeks of riding on Sunday. Woohoo!!!

I was in Kimberley the other day. Home of PJ Hunton of Norco - creator of the Bigfoot VLT. Spoke with the groomer at Nature Park for about 15 minutes. Awesome dude. Said PJ is on their local board. PJ said that they missed the 2022 deadline due to COVID related supply delays. Stay tuned for a super bike.

Man. I just don’t know how much better they can get over the ones we have. I spent the last two days doing laps on this beautifully manicured stuff:

I stopped and turned around and saw my daughter about 3 feet off the ground about 5 times in a row, slamming the downhill rollers. I hope I never forget that imagery. We are going back tomorrow to capture it all on video.

This is our second season on these bikes. I am blown away. I will not be dumping them no matter what comes out.

EDIT: Oops. Sorry guys. I see now I have been responding to the non-VLT thread. Apologies.

That color combo completely nails it. Hopefully, the factory sticks with that green frame color on their front shock model. It's a definite looker.

The owner of my LBS said last week their shipment is coming the 3rd week of Feb. but only some models of Bigfoot (2 and 3) and only some of the sizes available. The rest come sometime in March. This is in Alberta.
