FlareMAX is a proper sweet-spot chassis; the perfect trail bike. It's the only bike you'll need for ripping through the woods and conquering mountains. Light and responsive, yet fiercely capable.
The combination of big wheels and mid travel is an irresistible recipe for fun; whether it's an all day epic or an evening blast, 120mm or 132mm travel options, FlareMAX is more versatile than you would believe.
The FlareMAX is plenty of bike for those trips to the big hills, yet is responsive and engaging on more mellow and flowy trails. As Singletrack magazine says, the FlareMAX does fast, fun and far. It could well be one bike to rule them all.
Review
Read Pinkbike's outstanding review of the FlareMAX Gold Eagle bike:
"The combination of great suspension and geometry lets you attack the trail with conviction and verve normally reserved for bigger bikes."
"....and for a lot of...trails, it's all the bike I think many people need."
"Fun, fast, engaging, and exciting - the FlareMAX has won me over."
Are you in the UK and would like to demo a FlareMAX? Contact us via our Demo Page to organise a demo ride with us.
We now have a Factory Collection option on the bikes. Come down to our base in the heart of the Peak District, and we will set up your bike, the suspension, fit pedals, get you all comfortable. You can even take your new Cotic out on its maiden voyage around our demo loop, straight from our workshop door.
Just tick the Factory Collection option on your order and we will look forward to seeing you. We'll contact you once we have received your order, and arrange a day that suits you for your visit (Monday - Friday).
Cotic frames are designed, developed, engineered and tested entirely by us at our base in the Peak District, near Sheffield in the UK. Our founder - Cy Turner - is the lead designer and engineer, and our frames are rigorously ride tested by everyone at Cotic, and our Race Team. They are fully certified and lab tested in excess of the requirements of ISO4210 safety standards.
This frame is hand made in Taiwan by our specially selected framebuilder, chosen because of their vast experience with our favourite materials, and their top quality finish. They are the best in Taiwan for what we need, and have been making our frames to our high standards since day one.
Each frame is dip coated inside and out with zinc phosphate before painting, to prevent corrosion and ensure the best paint finish. After we've agonised over the colours, designs and decals the frames are painted to the highest quality including a protective clear coat, before extensive QC by our agent in Taiwan. Once the frames reach us in the UK, we carry out further QC, and prep the frames for headset and bottom bracket installation.
As always, all complete bikes are built to order by us here in the Peak District, to the exact spec of your choice. We build your bike for you.
Radical Longshot geometry keeps the bike stable through the rough stuff, planted in the corners and pinpoint accurate in the steep tech. Couple a super short 35mm stem to the optimised head angle and the bike really pushes you on, looking for every stump to boost off, rock to gap and berm to rail, keeping you connected to the trail while maintaining incredible poise and composure.
Reynolds 853 builds a light, lively and fantastically robust front end, and includes our custom ride tuned Ovalform top tube which helps to deliver that famous ride feel. The frames' steel construction is compliant and naturally ground moulding, extracting grip and feedback from the trail where you thought there was none.
MAX by name, Maximum versatility by nature, the FlareMAX can run either 29 inch wheels with tyres up to 2.5" wide, or the latest 275 Plus sized wheels in 27.5 x 2.8" width.
29inch or 275 Plus wheels roll easy and give a lot of stability, confidence and speed in rougher terrain, at the expense of being a little heavier and less playful than regular 27.5" wheels. 275 Plus wheels (the 27.5 x 2.8 option) offer more comfort and traction than 29" wheels at the expense of more weight and slower acceleration.
Why Big Wheels?The way the MAX frames are packaged around the larger wheels (longer rear end, longer wheelbase, taller front end) can suit the proportions of a taller rider better, this will minimise any potential drawbacks, as a taller rider tends to have long enough arms and legs to move the bike around easily. However, if you're after more speed and stability from a bike, you may enjoy the SolarisMAX more than an easier to manoeuvre, but less stable, smaller wheeled bike.
New 132 Pack for Summer 2019
For those riders wanting a little big terrain capability from their FlareMAX there is now a 132 Pack. This boosts rear travel on bikes and frames to 132mm via a longer stroke Cane Creek shock, and bikes are paired with stout X Fusion Trace 36 or Cane Creek HELM forks with 140mm travel. Read the news story to find out more...
All Cotic bikes are assembled in the UK from and frame up. We have set specifications, but these are just the start. Want the Silver spec bike with tubeless tyres? Easy! Want a big can air shock on your RocketMAX instead of the inline? It's there too. Full colour matched Hope parts, and add the matching brakes too? It's a click away, and everything else in between. If it's not a choice on the order form, just ask.
When you contact us you are talking to the people who design the frames and will be building your bike. We check it and build and pack it in our award winning bike boxes with the same care we would our own bike, because we know how important it is. We build your bike, for you.
If you like the idea of a suspension trail bike from Cotic, but with the lighter, livelier ride of the smaller 27.5" wheels, you need our Flare.
Like your wheels big, but your ride a little faster and tougher? A little slacker and more enduro? You need the RocketMAX.
Maybe you're more a hardtail rider, but like the versatility of the FlareMAX with 29er and 275 Plus wheels? Have a look at the SolarisMAX.

All our bikes are hand assembled to order here in the Peak District by Paul, Cy, Richard or Will. If there's anything on the spec you're not sure about, or don't need, give us a ring to discuss. We'd much rather leave something off you don't need and charge you a bit less than waste a perfectly good part you'll not use when we can put it on someone elses bike. Better for you, better for us, less waste, so better for everyone.
When ordering, you can choose key components to help you get the fit you want on your bike (contact us if you need help), but you can also go custom if you want to personalise your build still further. Many of our builds can be customised extensively, with headset, brake, wheel and fork travel options available.

The chart is a guide to frame size. Longshot Geometry means that the frames are low and long, with plenty of standover room. You can take this two ways: We recommend going for the size suggested for your height on the chart, and getting all the benefits of running a super short and responsive 30-35mm stem. If you prefer a more conventional setup, you could go for the next size down with a long dropper post to keep pedalling height, and run a 45-50mm stem. Make sure you consider your leg length as well. If you upsize you might not be able to fit a dropper post with 150mm drop due to the collar hitting the seat tube top or the dropper post bottoming out on the seat tube droplink pivot. If you are unsure about that or anything else, 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 and what seatpost you are planning to use.
