Its taken me about 3 years to get the build spot on but recently my cotic simple has completly clicked.
I am so happy that I held on to it after thinking of selling it last year. So manuverable and light, yet will straight line through rock sections it really shouldnt be able to deal with.
fast, fun, chuckable, confidence inspiring, beautiful, light , sprightly, corners on rails, etc, etc, etc
No real point of this except to say that I hope Cy keeps that magic when he re-releases it

It's all I could do to resist when Cy announced the re-release recently....
you might want to think about shortening that brake hose, otherwise very nice.

It's only a steel bike frame, not some magic metal. It's not *that* different to 95% of the other steel hardtail frames on the market...
