I reckon you could pick the warlock and use it instead of the Cotic, with big knobs and all the optionals you already have on that one. Since the Stayer is your most used bike, i'd count the similar geo as a pro? It's an investment that might be worth money wise, the real "struggle" might just be the amount of time you'll have to spend to swap everything over

After some weeks of meh/commute tedium/loss of love for bike riding I finally got back up north, and rode around with close friends. Average pace = 14 kph. Bird watching, mince pies and mulled wine were all involved.
I had a go on a friend's Fearless Warlock - its the fork pictured in image 2 - and I really rather liked it, even the fact that his XL size fit me saddle height-wise but the reach was not ridiculous like the Cotic. He's selling the frame for £350 so could easily replace the Cotic for that and actually have a dirt drop bike.
Pros - colour is great, feels 'premium', dirt drop-ready
Cons - not a fan of its curved ST, and the geo is pretty much identical to the Stayer. Too similar?
