 little bit pricey? what do you compare it too... to get that price? I thought steel was a cheaper option?

 Nothing in this world is comparable to this frame. The feel and handling of this cromo frame is simply unique. It is the only cromoly dh frame available in production!

We design this frame to be really active and fun to ride will providing a really agressive world cup racing geometry,and it is 100% made in Canada, built with premium quality True Temper steel.

 If Cromo was such a good material why havent all the bigger brands clocked on to it? looks pretty good! annoying thing about where i live is that it rains 365days of the year.. and cromo rusts for fun!

 The main reason why the big bike compagny prefere aluminium to steel is simply because it is cheaper, easier the manipulate(transform) and is alote faster to weld

Indeed aluminium doesnt rush, but it does oxide, (same thing, different material) same result.

 Oh.. I always thought steel was cheaper, I know certain Ali grades are worth fuck all haha to be honest dude I hope you get somewhere, you should try contact Slam Cycles for some more dealers in th UK, if your interested drop me a PM and I'll send you there email

 It's not cheap, but you could easily pay another £1K on frame from a list of different brands.

 Nope. Just like the rest of our frames!

Really good cromoly + welding technique + frabrication process = no need for extra cost...

 Shady. If I'm spending $2500 on a cromoly frame (which I am not. LOL.) it should damn well be heat treated.

 couldnt resist

 well cromoly has no place in the dh /race frame industry - costs more , weighs more , and just overall not as good

 I love how your arguments are true!

The frame couple with a custom valve shox is about 1000$ cheaper then about any other frame on the market....

A large Frame with a 450lbs steel coil spring weight in at 10.98lbs.... lighter then most frame

And I am really happy to know you did try one!

 please say shock , unless you include more then one shock , because your saying shox like its plural , does that mean the frame comes with more then one ? great ill buy the frame just to sell the spare shocks for profit

 Nashmeyer needs to shut up. Having ridden a stella I can vouch and say they are a kickass frame.

 Does Dob plan to give these things a tapered headtube in future?

 It would weaken the frame If we did that. Are you thinking about putting a single crown fork on it? I tried it with a fox 36 and I could clearly feel that I was 2'' short on travel in front!

 I don't know, just trying to get a mental comparison going between this and a big brand alu rig. Are all the little features present? Things like dropper post cable guides, for example, are little details that can put people off. Maybe get some pictures of the frame built up?
  • 10
 We already did a frame for a guy in Austria that was running a dropper seat post, we did put the cable guide on it,

Check out the main picture page on our facebook, there is a few completly build : www.facebook.com/DobermannBikes/photos

The big difference with the bikes we make is really about keeping stuff really simple, strong and reliable. We don't make stuff simply to change, unless there is something to gain, simple is awesome!
