I would think, that so long as you have the shifters and cassette to suit plus a spacer washer to bring the cassette out to the right position, you could.  🤔

As long as the chain clears the stay, you should be good with and 1x front ring

The later the better but 2013 onwards seems to be the one. You can tell by it's thickness. Around 8mm from what I can tell.

I used to buy Shimano from CRC but I see they're doing AU sourced now. I don't know how SRAM & Shimano get away with forcing you to buy from their nominated distys. Any other manufacturer would be in front of the ACCC quick smart. You could try Merlin but even they are reducing the lines they carry.

Got to love a Norco. It looks nice and light, is that a 46 on the cassette?

So, after lots of googling, Youtubing and general researching, I've ordered the cranks for the !x drivetrain swap on my boys' Trek using the Dore stuff from Wifeys' Aldi 29er. I was mucked around by a couple of bike shops, my LBS said it couldn't be done. Another one had some of the worst communication I've ever experienced and because of it Shimano Australia sold out of the bits I wanted before I could get them ordered. Dodgy online sellers didn't get a look in even though they were showing stock of the bits I wanted. I just couldn't do it.
Ended up ordering Truvativ Descendant Eagle DUB cranks, 170mm non boost, a DMR Blade 30t cahinring and SRAM DUB Bottom Bracket.
Got it all from Pushys.
Can't wait to get the swap done.
Cheers, Mike.

After a blast with the kids and wife... Took out a kom on a mud segment called the swamp (which was dry)... Goes well for an old girl with a legit 80,000km...

Need to rebuild the front forks though

Check the fork crown carefully - my brother's Z1s went about 12 years ago after they cracked... at 10 years old....

I've got to drag motorbikes out the shed this weekend, so I'll also get the pushy's out and clean them all up a bit.

Found a nice little local gravel loop that I'm going to go on a spin around in the next few days as well.

Back in early November, I had a technical dismount that resulted in a damaged rib and what is now starting to look a more damaged shoulder than we first thought.
