For a starter hardtail is it worth the extra $200 + tax for the Trek? In my opinion the Trek looks better but the Norco is less expensive and has a better mounted feel and ride.
I dont know $h!t so please help me out?

Remarkably similar bikes. The only difference in componentry/spec that I see that the Trek holds over the Norco is boost spacing (front and rear? hard to tell) and potentially through axles. Boost spacing would make it potentially (assuming it’s a standard that sticks) easier to upgrade in the wheel department. Through axles are stiffer and sturdier, but I’m not convinced that it’s a huge advantage unless you are doing some serious stuff.
The trump card, though, is that you seem to like the feel of the Norco better and that is worth a whole lot of componentry and price and etc.
