The Cotic Soda is our titanium Uber-Hardtail. The ultimate evolution of Cotic hardtail
technology. Starting with our award winning Ultra Compact Geometry, carried over
unchanged from the Soul, we added a custom drawn double-butted 3/2.5 titanium
mainframe with an oversized down tube and gusseted front end. This locked in the precision
without compromising the fabled titanium ride. Also present and correct are all the
refinements you have come to expect from Cotic: custom machined dropouts, bridgeless Hexten
stays, superb finish. The result is a shocking combination of low weight, high strength and
superb ride.
In response to customer demand the cable/hose routing is now under the top tube and features zip-tie hose clips. The frame also now features etched down-tube graphics, for those that find our vinyl panels aren't subtle enough for them.
The Cotic Soda : Your all day, all night, end-to-end, do anything trail weapon.
Too rich for you? You need the SOUL.

Geometry and Sizing Chart
The chart is a guide to frame size. Ultra Compact Geometry means that the frames are small and long. You can take this two ways. You can either have a regular position coupled with a small and chuckable frame, or you could go for the next size up and go long and racey without feeling like you're riding a gate. You lot are just too different to say for sure, so drop us a line at size@cotic.co.uk and we'll be happy to discuss set up based on what you're riding at the moment.
