Longer, lower, slacker, faster, stronger, slacker, etc etc, did we say slacker? The Doctahwak When it comes to all 29er mountain hardtails, this is as bad ass as it gets! Once considered unfathomable, the Doc, with geometry combining long wheel base, slack front end and steep seat angle is the quintessential do-anything hardtail sled, that proves just how capable a hardtail can be. Hand made in Canada, with our custom tubes, locally machined parts, and paired with a 170mm fork up front, there's plenty of opportunity to hear "I can't believe they rode that on a hardtail!". 4130 Almost all Chromag frames are made from quality 4130 chromoly steel tubing. Chromoly is an abbreviation for chromium-molybdenum indicating the materials that the steel is alloyed with. The added chromium helps increase the steels hardenability and also provide some corrosion resistance. The molybdenum helps to increase the toughness of the steel. It has a high tensile strength but is also malleable which is what gives our frames their notorious ride quality and feel. Chromoly is often used when more strength is required than that of mild carbon steel. It falls under the AISI (American Iron & Steel Institute) 41XX designations which is where the "41" comes from. The "30" indicates it contains approximately 0.30% carbon by weight. Chromoly is much stronger than traditional 1020 steel and it has a higher strength to weight ratio and high tensile strength, which means we can use less material and achieve a product that can withstand the abuse that riders love to throw at it. Why we made this It started with an envelope pushing experiment and became our staple hardcore-hardtail!
