Quick search shows annual revenue as $C31m, not that big....

As a bike company, still not what I’d call small. They would outsell most of the companies aside from the Huge names.
I reckon most races I go to 1/10 bikes is a Norco.

Did some search and couldn't find a concise report comparing brands accurately. The best stuff is behind a paywall.
However, for context Giant is estimated at $US1.9B, Huffy up to $US50m, Trek $US0.9B, Cannondale $US600M, Kona $US5.2M, Specialized $US0.5B, Santa Cruz $100- 500M (Leaning towards $100M), Salsa $US200M.
This should be all taken with saltshaker of salt and just from a couple of quick searches...
The accell group is probably the biggest lesser known body after Dorel and Merida Industry. Merida, giant and accell have all reported upswings in the last 12months.. It'll be interesting to see how covids effected that and whether we see a price increase or not to protect forecasted targets..

They last very long so don't get many new sales?

Salsa??? I'm shocked. Is there some brands in their company other than the salsa brand?
Norco generally deliver good value bikes that are reliable and lots of fun to ride. I haven't owned one for a very long time, but owned quite a few in the glorious days of glory.

Well wiki doesn't seem to think guns, but the parent company has a lot of fingers in a lot of pies

You'll need a Norco if you keep up with those pies n salsa.

Not really a bargain but a very desirable unicorn of a short stack stem.

Still not sure it warrants a large mark up, but it’s a sellers market.
This ebay old mate is selling some relatively cheap new maxxis tires - https://www.ebay.com.au/usr/xtracash114?_trksid=p2047675.l2559
Cheaper if you want one tire though eh
