2009 Meet LePink

LePink is a short travel full suspension frame designed to throw some big stuff on the Slopestyle course, dirt jump track, favorite freeride spot or anywhere you wish. The Pinscher-inspired geo make it feel like a Pinscher ...but... PLUSH!! ideal to go big! Using a coaxial pivot system inspired from a spanish BB allows us to save some weigth and increase rigidity. Hardtail riders that need the extra travel will feel right at home on this puppy.























Some pictures of the actual production model with laser cut shock mounts and dropouts (It was not ready on time to make it in the Catalog).

2009 Molosse ("Mol-auss")


Lots of changes on the 2009 Molosse("Mol-auss")
Lighter weight, lower retail price(600$CAD), 24 or 26" specific and many options that used to be available on custom orders only.

The MOLOSSE is designed to attack the street and rip the park MTBMX style. It combines the same geo as our Pinscher, but is now available in 24 or 26” wheel specific configuration. The 2009 Molosse’s are also getting a “package” of BMX inspired options that used to be available on custom frames only. The 14mmx110 BMX rear end, Spanish BB, Vbrake mounts and Gyro tabs, were very popular upgrades, we decided to make them available to you as one of our production frame.These combined options are the ultimate setup to achieve a light and durable MTBMX bike.

2009 Pinscher


The Pinscher has been our flagship frame since our debut in 2005.

The 2009 edition has very few changes as we could not be happier with the way this frame performs. You will notice a seat tube that is a little bit shorter and the addition of 4 Bitchin' stock colors(MSRP 525$CAD) : Flat BLK, Arctic White, Tans-Blue and "Barney"Purple.
All 4 colors were available as custom colors in the past years, for 2009 we decided to make them available as stock color on all of our frames and forks. If those colors are not what you want...don't worry we still have 100's of custom colors available(MSRP 625$CAD).

Cheers!

The Tchokr forks are out!!

After years of testing and fine tuning The Tchokr forks are now available to the public!
You can get them through your regular Dobermann Dealer or through your favorite bike shop.
The Dobermann Tchokr fork was designed to give a stronger option to the rigid fork enthusiast. Stronger and stiffer, lighter and cheaper than a suspension fork, makes this baby the weapon of choice. Larger diameter fork blades and internal vertical gusset truly bring the fork to our standards without adding weight. At 3.1lbs, it’s the best compromise between durability and weight. It sure can outlast any rigid forks out there.

Some spec's :

- Oversized 35mm fork blades to increase stiffness (same diameter as the top and down tubes on our Pinscher frame)
- Vertical gusset inside the steer tube to maximise the stiffness without adding much weight
- Beefy, one piece CNC machined steerer tube with stress-relieving extra long headset bearing seat.
- Built in house in Canada using True Temper 4130 American-made chromoly tubing
- Laser cut 6,35mm( 1/4”) thick dropouts
- Available with10mm or 20mm dropouts.
- 24 & 26 inch wheel compatible.
- 2 sizes: short 430mm or long 450mm )
- Available with or without brake mounts (V-brake or disc).
- Weight: 3.1lbs. (430mm/brakeless)



Also available for 29er!!!!!

While testing the prototype, we received many requests for a real stiff 29er fork. 29er forks are longer which make them flex. The 35mm fork blades and beefy steerer tubes offer a seriously stiffer 29er fork for hardcore 29er bike riders

The 29er Tchokr fork will be available in stock and custom length to suit your 29er geometry, in 10mm or 20mm axle, with our without the internal steerer tube gusset.


Cheers!
