Y es Cove has alot of green frame colors but this one is a bit different, try and search the exact one and you wont find it. Its the yellow lettering and a bit diff shade of green that makes this unique.  You will find lighter shades of green and darker shades of green frames both with white or black lettering only, no yellow lettering. I was told by a former Cove bikes employee that this color was exclusive for the team riders and there was approx 13 of these made. Shipping note!!! To reduce the sensitive shipping fee, the rear triangle will be disassembled to minimize the box size. Assembly requires some mechanical skills.
