Our inspirational flat bar adventure bike. Bikepacking and Life Hacking, or just some old school XC. Trails, tracks, loaded tours, big days out into the back of beyond. It handles all of it with the same unhurried confidence. Signature Cotic ride feel that breathes with the trail, and a rigid simplicity and beautifully clean silhouette.
The Ride
Cascade is designed to thrive offroad, not just survive. Cotic Sureshot geometry gives you agility between the trees, and long wheelbase stability and confidence when you’re loaded up or moving fast. Flat bars or Jones style bars give you options and control, and a relaxed feel to your offroad adventures.
Go minimalist with our bespoke Alpaca steel fork for the purest ride, or add 100mm suspension forks for more capability and comfort on demanding terrain. However you choose to build it, the Cascade wears every setup with confidence and panache.
Not All Steel Is Equal
Reynolds 853 is a special heat-treated steel, which makes it stronger than standard steel tubing. That lets us use thinner walls and build a lighter frame without losing the toughness steel is known for. Every Cascade is hand made and finished in the EU. It’s a frame built to be ridden hard for years, across continents if that’s where your plans take you.

The drop bars give a comfortable, versatile position for long days. It’s familiar enough for road riders stepping into the rough stuff, and a revelation for mountain bikers discovering how much fun this kind of bike can be on familiar trails.
