My unboxing and initial review of the Poseidon Norton. To correct a mistake it is electric green, not emerald green. A steal at $699, with 130mm travel fork and trail bike geometry, it is a bike that i feel will be a lot of fun. So join me in taking a look at it and go get one for yourself.
Caveat I am not sponsored, endorsed or paid in anyway by Poseidon for this review.
