Cotic (UK) – "The New Roadrat: Swift and Rugged Flat Bar Flyer, Road, Gravel, Commute, Adventures. Faster than a mountain bike on the road, way more fun and versatile than a traditional road bike, the Roadrat is your perfect 'other' bike. A Life Bike. Cruise into work or head for the hills. Go on holiday, or to the shops. Go on adventures, or get some headspace", shared Cotic
According to the company the new Roadrat "was born of a desire for something swift and rugged to take on the rapidly crumbling tarmac of the urban landscape, but also up for disappearing for a few days with nothing but your sleeping bag and mat for company. We melded our iconic mountain bike fit and handling with fast road features and rigid forks".
All Cotic Life Bikes, including the Roadrat have big clearances for big tyres. Cotic supply the bikes with big volume 700x37c slicks, or the latest WTB Road Plus 650b x 47c tubeless tyres. They roll fast, float over the potholes in the road and bumps in the trail.
"The bike is disc brake only, because we have always considered disc brakes to be the best, strongest, safest option for road or offroad riding. It's in the DNA of the Roadrat, right from the original 2006 version - one of the first road bikes to feature disc brakes", they explained.
"Our brand new RB4 front fork moves to aluminium/carbon hydrid construction to keep the weight down and comfort high. A 12mm thru axle keeps everything accurate and together with the strongest of hydraulic brakes", the added.
"All the fittings are there for two bottles, rear rack, and full mudguards. Cotic Dogsbody track end dropouts let you do almost anything; regular gears, fixed, singlespeed or hub gear", concluded the Cotic.
Complete Bike Options:
Bikes start from £899 for the stripped out Singlespeed, which is still equipped with our fabulous Deep Dish Disc wheels and Deore hydraulic disc brakes.
The Roadrat 11 and Roadrat 9 offer simple, light, intuitive single shifter drivetrains based around wide range mountain bike style cassettes. The Roadrat Alfine 11 offers the same benefits plus the reliability and weatherproofing of an internal hub gear. The Touring build with double chainset 2x9 Sora build is the one to go for.
