John of The Radavist caught us Yesterday at Bespoked, before we'd even set up! Check out the photos and a good run down of what the new bikes are all about.

It's been a hectic week, as we prepare two very special bikes to show at a sold out Bespoked in London this weekend. If you're at the show, be sure to come and say hello.

Logo T Shirts are in stock! Our lovely new branding now available in T Shirt form, to go with the socks and 3D printed head badges we already have. £25 including P and P in the UK.

We have regular fit men's in Small, Medium, Large and XL, and Women's fit in Small and Medium.

From today, Cotic is back in an independent bike shop! We’re working with our friends Si and Matt and the team at 18 Bikes in Hope, Derbyshire, and I couldn’t be happier about it.

So here’s what’s happening at 18 Bikes in Hope right now: There’s a Solaris on display, our Reynolds 853 flagship hardtail. There’s a Rocket eMTB in C3 available to demo. We'll be adding in a gravel bike once we build up some stock for ourselves first.

The shop is open every weekend, and late on Thursdays. The trails are literally on the doorstep. Hope is Hope, if you know the Peak District, you know exactly what I mean. If you don't, then you need to visit!

The demo bike is part of our fleet, so with a bit of notice we can swap in different models and sizes. Want to try a BFe? A FlareMAX? Something in a different size to what you’ve been riding? Drop 18 Bikes or us a message and we’ll sort it.

There’s also something new on the buying side. You’ve always been able to have your Cotic shipped direct, or come to us for a Factory Collection where we set you up properly before you leave.

Now there’s a third option: Dealer Collection. Order from us as normal, have the bike delivered to 18 Bikes, and the guys there will get you perfectly dialled in on a weekend or Thursday evening that works for you. All the care of a Factory Collection, but at a time that suits you, in the heart of the Peak District. Not bad.

To learn more, swing by 18 Bikes and have a look around.

We are down to our last few small/54cm Escapade frames and bikes and we need to make room for the incoming new version, so we have a serious deal on the remaining stock. Framesets just £699 and bikes from just £1,499.
