Today we open order for our 2026 Cotic Solaris. Honed and refined for over two decades, the Solaris is our Reynolds 853, Made in EU flagship and it's quite simply the best hardtail we have ever built.

Our new colour is Limestone Gloss, carry our beautiful new look and our new 3D Printed head badge.

There isn't a second stock colour for 2026, because we are bringing in more frames for our A La Carte custom colour programme. This proved super popular on Solaris this year, so for 2026 we're offering more people the chance to put their own twist on our trail icon.

Orders are open now for the new colour for delivery in Mid-November, with A La Carte frames ordered now being delivered before Christmas. Price is held at £1,199 for the frame only (UK), with bikes starting from £2,899.

As a result of the new colour launch, our current colour stock in Ember or Forest is on sale to clear some space. These frames are reduced by 25% to £899, and this rolls over into £300 off any bike as well. We only have Forest in C2, C3 and C4, and Ember in C3, C4 and C5. Last few, and when they're gone, they're gone.
