Hummer Ti
The original Cove Hummer established the hardcore titanium frame market and has ruling over it ever since.
The first Cove Hummer frames were made back in 1992 to meet the need for a solid 'do anything' frame which could meet the demands of the emerging North Shore trail riding scene. Riders wanted improved strength, greater tire clearance, and longer travel suspension all in a light weight package that can go the distance and take on the North Shore ups and downs.
2009 sees yet further steps forward and improvements to this cult model with the whole frame being reworked and detailed to keep it out ahead of the competition. Built by titanium gods Lynskey and with features like a machined head tube, socket style dropouts, replacement gear hanger, custom formed downtube, custom formed chainstays, 2.4" rear tyre clearance all in a package perfectly adjusted for a 140mm travel fork. All of these improvements have helped to improve stiffness without compromising on the frames overall weight. Add to that a laser etched headtube badge and polished tubes it is easy to see what so many other people see the Hummer as the benchmark in titanium performance.
