Cove says
Designed for those with exceedingly high standards, the Playmate dances on the same stage as the Peeler, but in a slightly slimmer package. Using the same aggressive suspension platform as the Peeler, the Playmate weighs in three-quarters of a pound lighter, featuring 7.5 inches of rear travel and a slightly tweaked geometry for better climbing. Spec’d with a front derailleur mount and wicked paint job, the Playmate will love you long time.

About Cove
Cove Bike Shop owner Chaz Romalis and his Brothers had a little shop in North Vancouver, BC - a front they used to convince the queens cowboys that they weren't high on crank, just high on bikes. Over the years, as sick North Shore riding kept getting sicker, the trails began witnessing a high volume of busted helmets, battered egos and torn bagskins. Chaz and his faithful hound Gramps soon realized that if they were going to keep riding and reproducing, they had better do some redesigning. In 1
