Downhill

Cove Shocker

At Cove Bikes we're all about big backdoor wattage. Designed and built for major speed and amptitude, the Shocker features our proven dual link suspension platform, delivering a mega 8.75 watts of rear travel via a Rock Shox Vivid 5.1. A Sram Maxle rear axle and Easton RAD tubing bring it for a super stiff ride that takes corners and rails them. That Shocker's so baddass it won Mountain Biking Magazine's 2007 DH Bike of the Year, and helped Canadian Cove rider Steve Smith to some outstanding DH finishes. Check him out in the new Collective film due out in Spring 2008.

  • Specialized Hi-Lo hub features variable sized flanges for a perfectly tensioned, ultra durable wheel. A 20mm thru-axle on the front improves stiffness and steering precision, while the 10mm chromoly axle in back increases durability. 32-hole DT Swiss F550 rims are custom for Specialized. 32mm width, eyelets and a sleeved. DT Swiss Competition 2.0/1.8/2.0 butted, stainless spokes and brass nipples for a true build.
