2022 Norco Bikes 1714G
- Serial: A9NCX7I046
- Manufacturer: Norco Bikes
- Name: Big Foot
- Model: 1714G
- Year: 2022
- Primary colors: Black and Green
- Frame size: XL
- Frame Material: Carbon or composite
The bike in the picture doesn't match any 2022 color schemes I found online and doesn't appear to be carbon fiber. Furthermore I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as a carbon framed Bigfoot. I'd assume whoever registered that serial # put it bogus information? It's got fishy all over it. I didn't mess with calling the provided # to the ad and am not sure it'd be something I'd want to risk.
edit: i think I figured out it's a 2017 Norco BigFoot 6.3 which msrp'd for $914 when new. The $600 price seems reasonable, but the ad say hydraulic disks when the 2017 was spec'd with mechanical disk brakes.
I believe this to be my bike that was stolen a few months back.. Have you been able to get in contact with the seller at all? They have defaced a lot of the bike from what it used to be but there are still a few things I’m able to match up with pictures I have. I know this is but of a long shot but who knows
