Break In At Cotic Bikes

by 0


Cy Turner is asking for your help in recovering the five bikes that were stolen from Cotic HQ last night. Here’s the announcement from Instagram:

We were broken into last night between 1000-1045. It could have been a lot worse had it not been for our brilliant neighbours and the speedily responding @derbyshireconstabulary. Our demo fleet was targeted, and although 3 bikes were recovered at the scene, the above photographed 5 bikes are definitely gone.

  • C3 Silver XT FOX @hopetech RocketMAX
  • C2 Gritstone @srammtb @rockshox Rocketmax
  • Large Midnight Blue XT @rockshox Jeht
  • XL Nimbus SLX Rockshox Jeht with high rise Rental bars
  • Slate Grey FLAREMAX SLX with blue SID, small or medium (still working that out)
  • All have @hunt.mountain wheels.

No one was hurt, and ultimately it is just stuff. But, I would I would have preferred to be up until 2am on my wedding anniversary doing something else, and as I need help I am about to ruin Saturday for the rest of the staff. That probably pisses me off more than the bikes. However, if you spot these relatively rare bikes for sale where they shouldn’t be, contact us, or Derbyshire Police. Thanks, Cy

As well as helping to sell bikes, Cy’s demo fleet has been used to support a range of activities that has helped put them in the running for the Singletrack Reader ‘Giving It Back’ Award. As Cy says, it could have been worse, but it would be great to see the bikes recovered and the thieves caught. Keep your eyes peeled!

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
