it deserves a 10 since it's the only bike I had never complained about. Like having a bloodstock horse. And the finish was very good !

that is very Cannondale Raven, who was first though??!. Are they Votec own brand forks?
I quite like the new Votec V.SX 1.4 or 1.3, very nice.
I like your fleet of bikes, not the norm, but you definately know what you like!

Hi Thanks for the kind comment on my "fleet". Yes i'm more into XC/Marathon stuff than Dirt/Freeride bikes... my fault ! :)
Yes, this was like the Raven (revealed in 1997) and it began its history in 1998 so Coda should have been the first.
Votec did its own forks, moto-like style and very light too. Mine was 2 air-cartridges inside and very stiff ! They are renamed bikes in Germany. The Porsche bikes were made by Votec, a sign of quality.
Votec is now a reborn company which seems more classical than by the past.

Put up a better pic and i would give higher rating, maybe a 10. Never heard of these bikes, but from a bit of googling they seem like a good, light XC bike?

Hi mate ! Here is a whole pic ! Votec made the bikes for Porsche in the late 90s... The C9 is really "pure muscles". Hope you like it !

An ultimate machine... quick, very stiff, very efficient and... awesome. German build.

Carbon frame - Full Xt-XTR - Crossmax wheels - Hope Mini brakes - Votec homemade fork Air?

One of my best bike ever, I rode it for 7 years and broke the frame twice by jumping stairs, but Votec changed the frame each time.
