Delicate, hesitant and relaxed – all words that aren’t in the Cotic RocketMAX’s vocabulary. You only have to look at its low-slung silhouette and slammed angles to know the RocketMAX is a hard-charging beast, but does it have a refined side?
Super stable and composed droplink suspension
Easy to ride fast on flat-out trails
Solid on the climbs
Complex shock makes setup tricky
SRAM G2 brakes underpowered
Demanding on tighter terrain
May 2020 · Robin Weaver
The RocketMAX offers a lively, engaging ride thanks to the frame feel and confident geometry, but it’s not the comfiest bike when the going gets rough
Long and low-slung geometry gives masses of confidence on steep sections
More agile than the numbers might suggest
Solid, dependable build that’ll handle a hammering
Helm fork can feel harsh on repeated hits at speed
Back end not the plushest through really rough sections
