Return of the legend...
The Tomac Cortez hardtail is based off the original Manitou hardtail, but improved as a result of new advances in tube specifications. The Cortez is true work of art, with CNC-machined chain stay and seat stay yokes, beautiful hand-made construction and an aesthetic simplicity that screams high end. With geometry that mimics the original bikes that brought John Tomac the rainbow jersey, it's a weapon that all bike geeks must add to their arsenal..
The Tomac Cortez is a state of the art aluminum hardtail with CNC detail not seen on modern bikes.

Technology
Named after Johnny's home town in Colorado, the Cortez is a throw back to Johnny's XC racing days. Built with butted AN6 aluminum and featuring a bevy of CNC parts, the Cortez isn't your run of the mill aluminum XC hardtail. It has traditional geometry, with a 70.5 degree head angle and a 72 degree seat angle, which with combined with short chain stays and a long sloping top tube for more stand-over clearance, give the Cortez and relaxed and comfortable feel.
When we designed the Cortez, we looked at every detail of the bike, from the CNC machined chain and seat-stay yokes that butt into box section stays to the shaped top, down and seat tube. You will notice this attention to detail even at a glance. The Cortez is stiff, perhaps one of the stiffest hardtails ever made, and it's a climber. Nary a hint of flex can be felt when you hammer the pedals and with a taller head tube, which when fitted with a standard headset provides more upright rider positioning. Dual water bottle mounts on the top and down tube ensure you can take the Cortez on your all day adventure.
