Origin
Norco built the Threshold to compete in cyclocross racing, a discipline that demands a bike equally capable on mud, grass, sand, and brief stretches of pavement. Over successive generations the Threshold's geometry and tyre clearance evolved to cover gravel racing as well, making it a genuine dual-purpose machine.

The verdict
+Strengths

- SRAM 1x drivetrain simplicity excels in muddy cyclocross conditions
- Thru-axle front and rear gives stiffness and confidence in technical CX corners
−Weaknesses
- Pure CX geometry is less comfortable than dedicated endurance gravel bikes on long rides
- 35 mm tyre clearance is limiting compared to more modern gravel platforms
- Line became less prominent as Norco shifted focus to trail MTB and the Search XR gravel platform
