Now Hiring!!!


Dobermann Fab. is looking for a welder, a machinist and general labour!

Because of the growing demand of the Dobermann frames and new products for 2011, Dobermann Bikes need some help. We are looking for a full time (year round) professional TIG welder, a machinist/toolmaker that know how to work with conventional (non CNC machines) and a labour to help with the frame prep, powder coat and more small task (proper training will be supplied). Even if experience is great, we are mostly looking for someone with pure raw talent and apassion for bikes.
A cool part of being part of a small team, is that your input is vital to the success of the company.
So, one day, we might see one of your ideas on one of our bikes!

Most important of all, we are looking for someone who is as passionate, dedicated about bikes as we are.

If you want to be part of the Dobermann team, give us a call at the shop 819 986 8888 or email Alain at dobmaster@dobermannbikes.com

Cheers!

A day in the life of...

Fred the welder!

Fred broke his thumb in Tremblant (Canada Cup) two weeks ago. He is stuck with a cast for 3 weeks. Since he is a good employee and a hard-worker, he crafted something so he would be able to weld.

Big, Big, Big, Big...





Renovations at the new Dobermann headquarter have started last weekend!
We are proud to officially announce that next month, we are moving to Buckingham, Québec!

No, we are not moving because we were bought by Dorel ( April's fool everybody!) ...... Mostly because we don't like our crazy landlord. If you ever seen Caddyshack, the millionaire caracter is exactly like him. After5 years in Aylmer, we wanted a bigger place because our shop is pretty crowded and we found this huge building for pretty much the same price.

Big thanks to the local Buckingham riders that helped us out.

Cheers!

Barspins...They’re like the sweetest candy and I’m a rich fat kid who wants to eat them all

A nice intervew with MacDuff on PinkBike
Some people in your video comments dislike that you do a lot of barspins, why do you really like doing them?

Well if anyone can bar spin they already know why, they are hands down the most fun trick! The only thing more fun is 2 bar spins hahaha, and that’s why I do them, because they’re fun. I think people who put those comments on the videos can't bar spin because if they could then they would know how much fun they are and be like 'sick!' hahaha. I only do tricks that I find fun to do, but on the contrary I fully understand those people who don't like all my bar spins because I do, do a lot of them, lol, and I’m trying to cut down but they’re just soooo good. They’re like the sweetest candy and I’m a rich fat kid who wants to eat them all...and I want to apologize to all of the skinny poor kids who miss out lol. But I think when it comes down to it. I think they secretly like my bar spins or they wouldn't watch my videos.

Victory For Rocco, Clinton and Bryan at Ray's odd couple Video contest!

This is Dobermann Bikes first win in a top level comp!

We are so stoked! Congratulations to Rocco Quintiliani and Brian Kachinsky for the riding and major props to Clinton McMahon for finding a concept making that video THE crowd favourite! As you probably all know, Clinton is a rider and an amateur video maker. He showed us that he' s multitasked and he can deal with the pros, on his bike and behind the camera!



The second Dobermann team (yes we had riders reppin for Dobermann in 2 of the 11 teams) was not so lucky with the results. Matt MacDuff, Dillon Lloyd and Video master Vincent Allard produced a sick sick sick video! But for some reasons, it did not made the cut to top 5.



However...For his incredible riding Matt was awarded a spot on Ray's Lounge of Fame wall.And Vince's video made it as the Video Of the day on PinkBike!
Every trips to Ray's end up in a great weekend...and we wish we could've stayed longer.
Thanks to Ray and everybody involved in this event!
It was GREAT!! You guys ROCK!

Introducing the 2010 Pinscher evolutions

The 2010 Pinscher is now available, here's some spec's and info on them :
Working in small production batches allows us to tweek our desing as needed. Since the Pinscher's debut in 2005, the geo of the Pinscher and Molosse have not changed much (besides shorter chainstays). The geometry shared by those 2 frames is perfectly dialed and is the main feature of our frames! This geo will make your bike feel ligther and you will see an improvement in your riding in just a few ride.

We are working with frame ''evolutions'' rather than frame ''years'', as some frames made in the spring migth be sligthly different from a frame of the same year produced in the fall. Most of the evo's found on the 2010 frames that are produced as we speak can be found on the 09 frames produced in the last six month ( the new custom single butted top tube was added to the frames last summer).

Heres what's new on the 2010 Pinscher evolution :

- Custom single butted top tube
With the ever-increasing level of riding, popularity of rigid forks and new tricks that are abusing frames in ways that we haven't seen before (180's, foot jam ect ect) We needed to reenforce our top tube to prevent deformation. We did some tests using super high-end alloys and specialty tubes, but the ultimate way to make it bomb-proof without adding weigth and costs was to have some custom single butted tubes made for us by True Temper. The new top tubes are now much ticker at the head tube and gradualy get thinner going down to the seat tube. This new tube allowed us to save some weigth at the same time!

- 24 or 26 inch specific
At the '' demande générale'' we have designed some new drop-outs that are specific for the wheel size of your choice. This allowed us to make smaller/cleaner drop outs which are ligther and where you can slam your hub axle all the way in. The classic 24/26 dropouts are still available at no extra cost on request.

Spec's and Geo overview :

Material : True temper and aerospace 4130 cromoly tubing
Size's : 21.5'', 22.5'' and custom top-tube lenghts
Weigth : 24'': 5.1lbs short , 26'': 5.4lbs short

Colors : Trans-Blue, White, Flat-BLK, Purple + 100's of custom colors
Head tube : 1 1/8'' press fit, 110mm lenght.
BB : 73mm euro
Dropouts : 10x135mm (regular MTB hub)
Brake: Disk brake mounts (Vbrake option available)
Seat tube : 11.5'' long (all sizes), 31.6mm seat post, 34.9mm seat clamp
Head angle: 72°( both wheel size, 427mm Tchokr Fork)
Seat angle: 74° ( both wheek size, 427mm Tchokr Fork)
BB location : -6.4 mm from the axle line (both wheel size)
BB heigth: 26's: 12,7/8''(327mm) , 24's: 12, 1/8''(307.9mm)
Chainstay length: 15'' (381 mm) on 26's , 14.173' '(360 mm) on 24's
Wheel base :973 mm (small 24''), 1001 mm(small 26''), 994 mm(large 24''), 1022 mm(large 26'')
