[Closed] Cotic Thursday dispatch

I didn't get a despatch email but I emailed them Friday morning to check so I wasn't wasting a day waiting. They replied promptly saying it had been sent, as I was reading the email the courier pulled up outside with it.

That's good news. Hopefully on its way then.

Will fire an email off to ask so I don't sit in all day if it's not been sent.

I got an email from tnt when my solaris max frame was despatched

My mate got an email for his FlareMAX.

i didn’t get one for my SolarisMAX. but I did get one saying they hadn’t sent it (due to a supplier issue) the week before... also I’d spoken on the phone with Cy so I guess maybe that he said it was being sent was enough?

give em a phone when they open in the am.

Just spoke with Paul and it's been dispatched.  Can't wait.

TNT had loads of problems a while back and when I ordered my (old shape) BFe frame and I didn't get an email. The frame arrived on time though 🙂

real question is ... what did you order ? 😉

Surprised it took that long. New frame . That's all I will say for now until I build it up.

Can we get a colour?

Blue

New BFe then! Lovely

Just hoping it arrives today. 24 hr deliveries to Scotland can vary greatly depending on courier.

Yay  it's here.

No thread even though I know it's Friday. But it's prob not going to be built up till Monday .

It looks lovely though.

Which frame is it? You tease!

I broke my old frame on a Wednesday night ride, ordered a new one at midnight on wed night and this landed today. Bloody good service from Cotic!

Blue

FlareMAX then.

nice 👌

As it's Friday it would be rude not to I guess

Is that a small? Looking at the lack of wishbone.

Medium.

Unfortunately the seatube on the large was marginal for a dropper post for me.

It's still got longer reach than what I am changing from so it's all good.  TBH with the much longer reach bikes I find I get a lot of pain in my left shoulder (which had had multiple dislocations and ligament damage in the past)

I had an  275 medium ( which has the wish bone ) , but I found I didn’t have enough stand over, so I went for the gen 5 in small. I can’t feel any difference in sizing with the same components, except I can stand over it comfortably. I think Cy told me that the small was now almost as long as the 275 medium.  I think you will be impressed, my gen 5 climbs so much better with a 140 fork, in fact I will say climbing is now enjoyable.

i put a 35 mm stem on mine because I found the medium too long, and it is fine on the small.

I have dodgy shoulders too, have you tried a variety of rotator cuff and shoulder girdle exercises? I recommend as many different exercises as you can, so as to not repeat them for a few weeks.

What will you fit it out with?

I have tried the shoulder exercises but I am bad foe not keeping them up.

Going to have Yari Fork

Carbon bars with hopefully a joystick builder stem,

Raceface cranks, 1 x 10 sunrace/six drivetrain

Deore m615 brakes

Brand x dropper, Sdg saddle.

Ryde rims on superstar hubs with Bontrager and Maxxis tyres just now.

Going to helitape the frame tomorrow and build it up on Sunday.

Sounds sweet, I’ve got 1 x10 on mine, I was a bit nervous as had 2x10 on the 275, it is, however, fine on the steep stuff. It never goes on the road so I dont miss the fast end. I have just got a manic dropper and find the lever much better than the the reverb I had before. I just squeezed a 150 in the small frame. Crank is an xt double with a hope 32 single ring and sweep rl2s, then race face bits.

Sounds nice. Feel free to post a picture if you like.

Just going through the pain of making helitape stencils at the moment

I would if I knew how!

I have the cmyk if that helps form a mental image.

How’s the build going?

All done. I love it

That looks sweet

Unusual garden ornaments.

Looks lovely, nice work!

Fork stickers make it. Love it!
