Anyone selling one in a 19" (or 20" at a push) 
I had a Charge Duster (Prestige version) and got rid of it within a few months, it just didn't feel right to me no matter what I did.
Had an On-One Inbred too and loved it.
Cotic do make nice bikes but you pay a premium for the brand when you consider that they (the early ones at least) were made in the same factory in the Far East as On-One... its amazing the difference a change in decals makes to buyers perception.

Aren't the Cotics at least part 853 (main tubes) whereas the On One are a standard steel?
It's no different to a lot of other frames though...my understanding is that most of the mass produced bikes only come out of a handful of factories.

What about the Rock Lobster: http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/categ...review-merlin-rock-lobster-tig-team-853-10644
They usually sell the frames at Merlin, but there don't seem to be any at the moment: http://www.merlincycles.com/bike-shop/frame-forks/frames-mtb/merlin-rock-lobster-frames/
