We’ve just had word over the Bat Laptop that Cotic will be making it worthwhile you coming to the Cycle Show next week – lots of brand new models to see that you won’t have seen elsewhere – not even on Singletrack.
Cy Turner takes up the enthusiastic promotion:
“Great news for all of you heading to Cycle Show next week is that if you seek out Cotic on stand F12a, we will have actual, never seen before, not-teased-or-leaked new product to show you and talk about! I know, new product at London Show that wasn’t trailed, teased or launched months ago. Amazing!
We have four new frames to launch, and we’d love for you to drop by and see. The now legendary Soul has its first major re-work since its launch six and half years ago, there’s a new version of the BFe all mountain hardtail, a new Soda and something completely brand new we’ll keep to ourselves until we see you. We’re also bringing the 2010 version of the Hemlock (which is already on sale, so not exactly a launch), and a couple of RoadRats in various guises for your viewing pleasure.
Drop by any time; Stand F12a. There’s no formal get together or PowerPoint presentations, just us, some ace bikes and our blue inflatable sofa to flop upon when you arrive.”
We think that the flopping invitation is for the press, but we’re sure that Cy won’t mind you having a go on the famous inflatable blue sofa if you’re a Cotic fan.
If you’ve not seen our competition to win five pairs of free tickets to the show – now you can, it’s over here…

Buying and wearing our sustainable merch is another great way to support Singletrack
There’s usually more to see on Cotic’s news page too: http://cotic.co.uk/news
he’s right- should be very exciting! See you there?
So – how do you improve something as good as the Soul then?
The new one – is that the KP24?
29er soul?
er……..improve, not different (bites lip).
Seriously though – can’t see as there’s anything wrong with it.
granted, i love my soul. versatile 29er would sell some i reckon.
Do you reckon thats what will be unveiled as the new frame?

Why do manufacturers feel they have to court the press so much, what do they buy??
“Why do manufacturers feel they have to court the press so much, what do they buy??”
they buy the manufacturer sales as a result of a good review, as opposed to losing sales through pictures of cracked frames like the broken roadrat posted in the main forum.
Really looking forward to seeing the new Soda, really want a Ti hardtail and have been waiting to see what it’s like.
I keep pestering Cotic for a 29er; can’t see it happening but would be a nice surprise!
new shorter travel full-sus?
Here’s hoping the revised Soul will take 140mm forks!
Does the Bfe not take 140mm forks? If not, it should.
SHort travel full-suss? KP24 or whatever they’re gonna call it.
I really want to go….
They could improve on the Sould by making it in a size big enough for real men.
I ride the 19″ and I’m 6ft 3in with a 36″ inseam. How big d’you want?!! We made an XL once after lot’s of really tall blokes complained. We got 9 made, and ended up selling off 6 of them in our only sale to date some 2 years later.
Glad to hear you’re not jumping on the 29’er bandwagon!
