Poll - Where did you first hear about Cotic?

Cotic poll

We love the way a lot of Cotic's are bought by people spreading the good word about amazing steel bikes. It means a huge amount to me, and we want to spread the word further. So, I need your help to understand where you first heard about Cotic, so we can get more people on Cotic's!

If you wouldn't mind, could you click an option in the following poll? Thanks.

15/04/2025 - Cotic FlareMAX A LA Carte with Tailfin at Sea Otter

Tailfin x Cotic
Sea Otter Show Bike

2025 Sea Otter - Cotic FlareMax Tailfin Hope

Last weekend a very special A La Carte painted FlareMAX was at the Sea Otter Classic in California, in collaboration with our new friends at Tailfin. The bike was fully kitted out with Hope parts and wheels, and our other old friends at WTB brought the speed with their new Macro tyres, Volt saddle and grips.

As well as showing off what we can do with our A La Carte custom paint service, the custom made bags were a collaboration between Cotic and Tailfin to fit around the suspension, and demonstrate that bikepacking doesn't have to mean a gravel bike or hardtail.

Whilst he was at the show, John from The Radavist took a typically beautiful set of photos of the bike. Here are a few, but get over to The Radavist for a full rundown.

If you are interested in Tailfin bags, get in touch and we can talk through options. And if you want want your own special painted FlareMAX - or any droplink bike for that matter - we can certainly help there too. Make it yours. Make it a Cotic.

We'll be set up at Riders Retreat Tweed Valley - formerly called the Glentress Hotel - on both days, with demo bikes available for you to test ride.

Whether you are interested in our mountain bikes, gravel bikes or both; you can try them out on some of the best trails in the UK.

If you'd like to book on, simply email demo@cotic.co.uk or call us on 07970 853531.

Test rides are completely free, you'll have each bike for around 90 minutes and you can try several different bikes or sizes.

Booking is essential, so please get in touch.

Cotic CC Ride.

While we're in the area, lets ride bikes!

If you own a Cotic mountain bike, join Darren and myself for a social ride on Innerleithen's famous Golfie trails on Friday 16th May.

We'll aim for wheels rolling at 14:00 so you can knock off work at lunchtime and hit the trails. Bring your Cotic, and expect steep and technical trails. We'll keep the pace sociable and the vibe chilled. Exactly how long we ride and which trails we do will depend on the weather and the group, but we'll ride for at least a couple of hours.

If you've never ridden at The Golfie before its a great chance to try it out. If you're unsure, just drop us an email and we're happy to chat about it.

If you'd like to join this CC ride, please drop an email to demo@cotic.co.uk so we know who's coming.

21/03/2025 - Radavist Alpenglow FlareMAX

The Radavist Alpenglow flaremax build

Just look at this! John over at The Radavist has built up his very own FlareMAX into a stunning bike.

John's Cotic Flaremax Blue HourJohn's Cotic Flaremax-67

After reviewing the bike last year for the popular USA based website, John was so keen on the bike that he wanted one for his own stable.

This C5 Amethyst frame is dripping in some beautiful silver components, and those BTCHN Bullmoose bars are something to behold.

CLICK HERE TO HEAD TO THE RADAVIST AND READ ALL ABOUT THIS BUILD.

If you love the look of this bike and fancy a bit of this action yourself, we have a couple of Amethyst FlareMAX frames in stock right now in C2 and C3 sizes.

As they are in the building, they currently have a whopping £500 off!

It is also a colour on our A La Carte menu, which means you can choose it not only on your FlareMAX, but also on your Jeht, RocketMAX, Solaris, EscapadeUK853 or Cascade.

You wouldn't be the first, check out these recent Solaris and EscapadeUK853 bikes both using Amethyst:

If you're interested in your very own FlareMAX, or any of our gravel or mountain bikes, don't hesitate to get in touch.

We are always excited to chat about bikes!

Cheers,

Sam.

Photos from March Super saturday

Last weekend was our monthly Saturday open day at Cotic HQ.

It was a great day with busy Women of Steel and Cotic CC rides, some great demo rides and plenty of cake.

Here are some photos from the day.

DSCF5892DSCF5872DSCF5858DSCF5842

The Cotic CC headed out for a gravel ride on a new route which Paul had scouted out, heading out of Chesterfield on a mix of towpath, quiet roads and gravel tracks eventually reaching the singletrack Adventure Trail at Silverhill Wood.

A nice route and lovely sociable group, thanks to all who came along.

We have a couple of ideas for the next one for another new route, keep your eyes peeled for news very soon.

March 25 SupSat CC

There was a great group for the Women of Steel Social Ride too, who enjoyed a ride round our long demo route on a wide variety of bikes. Our Hannah is back from maternity leave now and loved getting back involved with riding, getting out on the Rocket eMTB prototype.

Our next Super Saturday is 5th April. If you like the sound of joining us on a Women of Steel or Cotic CC social ride, want to demo any of our bikes or visit our showroom to check out what we do, get the date in your diary and drop us an email to book your demo ride.

We're looking forward to it.

Cheers,

Sam.
