Prototype Identiti 4x Frame

22 Aug 09 / Posted By DBS

British brand Identiti have had allot of success over the years in 4X. They have NPS4x Rnd 6 Elite winner Pat Cambel Jenner, junior National Champion Bernard Kerr and Tom Dowie cut his wings riding for them. From these pictures it looks like they have used this experience to come up with a new 4X race frame. We at DBS have been saying to anyone that will listen that race specific frames are needed, instead of jump bikes set up to race. It looks like Identiti have done just that, at less than 4lbs it is a true racer.

Identit say.
Our long standing Krisis 4x frame has seen four very good seasons propelling our riders to National Championships and top 10 finishes at UCI World Cups.

But now we have taken our multi-championship winning frame one step further and produced the Krisis SL.

This brand new frame has been designed to be light, stiff and responsive as well as looking good.

The geometry has been refined and tweaked in mind of the courses that are being ridden today to make it more stable and faster.

We have also shaved a massive one lb off the frame weight. To remove this weight we have stripped it down to basics to create a pure race bred machine.

Weighing in at only 3.89lbs its one of the lightest 4x race frames on the market today.

4x is developing and bikes are following. One Bicycles tried it a few years ago and now Flow and Idntiti are making light race specific frames, with 4X racing growing hopefully other manufacturers will develop similar frames
