For Sale '04 Cove Stiffee FR frame 17.5" + '03 Marzocchi Z1 FR SL fork for sale

'04 Cove Stiffee FR frame 17.5" $180 obo

Well I've decided to let go of this frame after debating about building it up again.....I just don't see myself riding it because of my bad back. I had this frame built up for awhile and I absolutely loved it, very aggressive geometry and it handles the rough stuff extremely well. Cove says it will handle up to a 7" dual crown fork......personally I wouldn't run more than a 5" travel fork on it unless you just don't care about climbing with it. I ran a 5" travel Z1 on it and it was a great all around bike. The frame weighs in at 4.76lbs, very light for a frame that can handle a ton of abuse. I also have a seatpost quick release and a Thomson seat post I will include. The frame just has some cable rub marks from normal use but absolutely no dings or dents. I'm asking $180 obo.......these frames were $600 new. Here are the pics:

 

hmmmm very tempting!!! muuhahahhaaa!!:lol: Shannon? this frame would be sweet for your needs.

 

Hmmm - Do you have something new in mind? Matte blue ano Highline maybe?

 

Negative, no new bikes for me for awhile unfortunately.

 

damn sweet frame/fork... I could use the fork...

 

doooood Rob I thougt u were gonna make this frame a SS. It will be just like a new bike.

 

I was, but I figure if I ever do the SS thing I'll do it right and get a 29" wheeled bike

 

Frame and fork still for sale.......fork price reduced to $100! Will be putting the frame on mtbr soon.

 

I'd like to call dibs on the fork for now. I need to measure the steerer length on my Reign--it's at my dad's house, I will measure it tomorrow.

Also, what kind if features does it have besides the ETA?? Does it have air assist or just a coil??

 

The fork is all air sprung, no coil. There are 2 positive and 1 negative air chamber. The knob on the top right leg is a 4 step rebound adjustment....with the last click being rebound "lockout".....which is the ETA lockdown.

 

Is that a through-axle or standard QR?? It's kinda hard to tell.

Sounds like an awesome deal. I'm worried the steerer won't be long enough though[-o-]

I looked on Giant's site, and it lists the headtube at 5" long. That doesn't leave me much to work with. I will measure it tomorrow and get back to you. Anybody know if it's possible to have a new steerer installed and how much that costs?

Dibs until tomorrow when I measure?

 

Bringing this back from the dead, asking $180 obo. Just been sitting collecting dust, need to sell.

 

thinking!!!!!!!!!!!

 

marzocchi in magic mountainland has a press that puts new steerers on forks. I had a 66 done 3 years ago cost about 79 bucks including shipping.

is the frame still available? any chance i could take a look at it?

 

I'm 5'5, think this would fit?

Any guess on how much it would cost to build it up? Probably not the easiest question to answer.

 

PM replied! thx

 

Frame is still available. I've gotten a few PM's and replied to all of you. I'm located in Corona if anyone wants to come check out the frame.
