Saw this on Cove Bikes USA facebook. Looks like the prototype for the new hustler. Appologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere?

Looks like a ripper..

It does indeed, I love how Cove still use good old Easton RAD tubing and not all this hydroformed mumbo jumbo...

Nice. Might just be the angle but that looks slack as anything?

Gimme hydro formed tubes, man that thing is fugly - looks like a 90s throwback - it'll probably ride great though ๐Ÿ™‚

The gussets look a bit odd but I'm definitely intrigued ๐Ÿ™‚ I much prefer the rounded tube look to hydroformed curvy shite like Giant and Specialized.

Looks like the current one but with a daft huge shock mount/gusset thing that looks total overkill.

Given the single ring, the huge gusseting and the slackness, I suspect it's a mini-DH/slopestyle biek rather than a Hustler
