will4eva7k Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 seems like one of them phoenix company scenario things o.o DOBbike.com no longer works - DOB died? Rulong appears. I ordered a frames and rims from DOB, and its been almost a month, and i havent received my order i've paid for being an Australian importer. It feels like i been scammed. zhi, do you know these guys? i cant get in touch with the guys from DOB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 What about the DOB pro series frames, you know, the ones that look pretty much exactly the same as these, just with a slightly different top tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 So this is a sub-brand of DOB, right?Your right there adam. seems to have the rear triangle of a DOB, and the front of a Kamel. does that mean the rear is magnesium alloy and the front T6 ? just kidding.

Luke Rainbird Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 It's not... I don't get how you can say these are unrelated to the DOB kit in any way, with such huge similarities, but meh. Geo is a step closer to real than the DOBs, good weight, not too bad looking etc, but these frames need a dealer and proper advertising really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Not sure on the looks of the frames, and if they are magnalium or whatever it is i am sure they will snap like alot of the DOB frames i have seen dunno, maybe it is a possitive step forwards for trials? Yes maybe but for 26inch it limits you to what rear hubs you can run, especialy if you do not like freewheels. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Arnold Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 i like! shame about the 116ness, but if its way cheaper than other frames then the money saved can be spent on a hub. anyone fancy ordering a few with me if they're only availiable from china?

basher Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) It's not... I don't get how you can say these are unrelated to the DOB kit in any way, with such huge similarities, but meh. Geo is a step closer to real than the DOBs, good weight, not too bad looking etc, but these frames need a dealer and proper advertising really the fact he noes alot of chinese riders and manufacturers and shops so if he says if it is another company then im sure it is. As geo wise goes im pritty sure its the same as a 231 kamel at least very similar. And 116 spaceing is bloody anoying because we are all fine with it being 135 and not many people snap axels nowadays. And it just makes it more expensive when its comes to changeing frames.

Luke Rainbird Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 He can say that because more than likely he will be importing them into the country for people like he does with echo dob and so on. Also the fact he noes alot of chinese riders and manufacturers and shops so if he says if it is another company then im sure it is. As geo wise goes im pritty sure its the same as a 231 kamel at least very similar. Easy tiger, I'm not saying he's lying, I just find it very hard to believe that two totally unrelated brands could have near identical frames (swap out the top tube, obviously) Even if they weren't run by the same people, the BB 'yoke' (it's not, but you get what I mean) and stuff is EXACTLY the same, so they are likely to be out of the same factory Another note would be for people to note that 'Zhi' is using the thread to show us all the frames, not to drum up business, as this isn't really fair to the paying advertisers - if he wants to advertise his services he should go through the admin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Winton. Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Any ideas of price? someone needs to bring out some STUPID cheap frames like 70 quid jobbies even if they where lowe quality alot of people would still buy cheap frames like that.

JonMack Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I'm sure the price was posted in here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 It probably was. However, when you start getting the people who support the forum (i.e. the people paying for banners) complaining that someone's able to advertise for free, things inevitably have to begin to change.
