Hey Dustin, this is for you.


Robby, what frame is that? looks like a kona?
Its a 05 Cover G-Spot (meant freeriding and downhilling)
5th Element rear shoch with 6 inch travel and is 3 way adjustable and will also come with a shock pump, if you want more stiffness.

Also, what frame model?
G-spot lol
Yes i know it sounds weird but Cove has weirs names for their frames lol

and, what components does it have?Wheels, derailluers(spelled it wrong), brakes, fork, shock?
Rear Derailleur is a Shimano XTR, Front Derailleur is a Shimano Deore, Rims are custom made (Mavic Ex 729 Disc Rims, Shimano XT hubs), Fork is a Fox Talas RLC, 5th element rear shock, Raceface Evolove DH Forged crank and built in bottom bracket, Hayes hydraulic disc brakes (forgot the models but the silver one is special carbon fiber edition and is very hard to find. One of the best disc brakes you buy), easton monkey bar, deore shifters.
Anything else you want to know bro.
I'm sure I'm missing some small thing in there lol

O yea, and frame size.
Size is a 20 but your same height as me. It's the most common size for this bike.

Here's also a review of this bike frame. It's one of the best frames.

Parts Express also has their own brand too, but I haven't used it before.
which one did you use?
how much per roll?

That's a very similar set-up to my bike, almost the exact same components... except I have FomulaOne ORO hydraulics, not Hayes, and Race Face neck and bars. It's too bad it's a 20"er, Robby. I was thinking of getting it for my wife, but she really needs a 16" or 17" fram max.

I used 2 of the VB-2's for most of the interior and the DK-1 and SK-2 kits for the doors. You would probably want to get the TK-1 trunk kit for your trunk. Just send me a PM with what you are interested in and I will get you pricing.

Here's a link to the Cascade products on Parts Express web-site:

well its either a 20 or a 19 but its a medium size bike.
I have long legs, thats why i went a little bigger lol

If you know anyone else bro that wants a good bike, let me know.
This price is a steal for this bike.
I've won more money on it then i spent on it hahaha

Yeah, I have fairly long legs for my height, so I ride a 19"er too.

She's 5'7", so a 17"er is perfect for her. She can ride my 19"er, but it's a little too big, so it's not very comfortable for her.
