Looking at the Cotic X on C2W nad noticed that on the website it states

Price: No longer available.
The >X< is no longer in production. Full support is still available for existing owners.

Is there something new coming soon? I don’t like the black and there’s a few things I’d like changed anyway.

Maybe the novelty of riding road bikes in the mud is starting to wear off.

Cotic seem to have been quiet for a while, so either they are in trouble or we can expect an announcement of some sort soon. My money (and hopes) are on the latter.

yes, no, maybe 😉

It’s being replaced by a new, more road biased frame next spring which is based on the Roadrat

It’s very roughly a shorter version of the Roadrat frame so the angles and layout will be the same. Roadrat and >X< share the same tubing now and so wil the news frame so the weight will be the same at 4.5lbs.

so basically the old short version of the roadrat they stopped making a year or two ago but with better toobs
