The Big Move

Here's our moving schedule, so you know our plans for the next few weeks.

So big you can ride a bike inside

After a few years searching, we have found our new home. I’ve seen a fair few gloomy predictions for 2023, but ever the iconoclasts, for Cotic 2023 is the year of BIG TIME.

The new building is 3 times the size of our combined bases at Calver, and it’s going to be soooooooooo good. We will be way more efficient in the workshop and storage, so we will get you your new Cotic more quickly. We are going to build a showroom to show off our bikes that you can visit. We’re going to run rides and events. It’s so big Rich is even running a dual race in it before we move in and fit it out! BIG TIME!

So exciting, and we can’t wait to tell you more once we have it properly up and running.

The Moving Plan:

This week - Open as normal and doing our best to get through the holiday order backlog as quickly as possible. If you did order, thank you.

9th-11th January – Workshop closed. From next Monday we are concentrating on packing up Calver and getting ready to move. Sam or Paul will still be on hand to answer the phone and email and process your orders though, so do keep in touch.

12th-13th January – THE BIG MOVE! We’re closing completely for 2 days to get all hands on deck to move into the new premises.

16th January – Workshop opens at the new place. Emails and phone will be turned back on, and we’re back into getting your orders out to you.

As a result of all this, it’s going to be taking us around 2-3 on frame orders, and 5-6 weeks to process bike orders received this month, so please bear with us whilst we get this move done. Assuming the move goes smoothly and the workbenches get set up easily enough, we should be up and running pretty quickly from the 16th.

We’ve been working for the few weeks before Christmas getting all the dull utilities and security stuff switched over and upgraded, so in theory we should be good to go from day 1. We'll get those lead times down once we're in and settled.

After the move, all phone numbers and emails stays the same, but our new address will be:

Cotic Bikes

Unit 1B Broom Business Park

Bridge Way

Chesterfield
