Dobermann Bikes 2008 Evolution and new products

Oct 5, 2007

Dobermann Bikes is proud to introduce its 2008 line-up. This is a big year for us, after 3 years of production we have proven that we can make top of the line street & park frames that compete in quality and price with any manufacturer in the world. The best part is that everything is all made in-house in Canada! It is now time to to step outside our regular market and show what we can do in different fields.- The Choker Rigid fork. A powerful tool for all park, DJ and technical street rider. It helps to keep the flow, save weight and give precision steering (mushiness of suspension often results in loss of momentum). The down side of rigid forks is that until now it was almost impossible to find one that would last a decent amount of time. Most of our friends and riders were tired of replacing their rigid forks so they had no option but sticking with more reliable, almost locked-out,suspension forks. To solve this problem we bring you the Dobermann Choker Street / Park & DJ Rigid fork.

The Dobermann Choker fork was designed to give a stronger option to the rigid fork enthusiast. Super solid and stiff, without the weight of a suspension fork, makes this baby the weapon of choice. Simple solutions like using larger diameter tubes for the fork blades and an internal vertical gusset truly brings the fork to our standards without adding weight.

New seat-stays for a stiffer rear-end, new dropout for disk-brake adjustability , SHORTEST CHAIN-STAYS in the market at 365mm (14.37"). These evolutions raises the 2008 Dobermann Pinscher as one of the top North American made street park & DJ frame. We are also very proud to say that it is one of the most affordable
high end frame out there. (Complete specs list available on www.dobermannbikes.com)

- The Taxmann 29er Frame and Fork. The bike world doesn't revolve
around the park and street scene and as frame builder we enjoy and ride many different types of bikes. We have received a very strong demand to put Mathieu's 29er frame into regular production so we decided to listen. The Taxmann is not your typical light weight 29er. This one is made to take anything you can throw at it…from Whistler's A-line to a trip around the globe. Tired of flexy delicate XC 29er's ? This one is for you ! The Taxmann will be available with our 29er rigid fork. Just like our frames, the Taxmann 29er fork is built to last. (Complete specs list available on www.dobermannbikes.com).
