Key Quotes
Building a super-light down-country bike around a 4kg semi-steel frame is clearly a silly thing to do on paper when you can get carbon frames with similar travel for around half the weight.
Bike Perfect logoBike Perfect
It’s suspension and geometry, not frame material, that make the bike, and Cotic has nailed both.
BikeRadar logoBikeRadar
The FlareMAX is a monster on the climbs if you can forgive a bit of pedal bob, quick and easy-going through flowy mellow sections and massively confidence-inspiring when the speeds rack up.
