This frame before bead blasting

Well, 30 months is quite an age too. Back in the days when we were starting the Triton Bikes project with Luke Edwards from Triton Cycles, we were thinking of how to name the models. My name is Dmitry, but the short version is actually Deema Luke said it sounded unusual for an English-speaker. Plus I would be able to show off to girls that I had a bike named after me haha. So we named them Deema's. Some customers used to ask me to keep it noname, but there was still a batch of those frames built with this name. So voila

Wooow! The old Triton! One of the earliest! Glad it's still running! I will be glad to offer you a new frame with a discount as you are the retro owner PS: I guess nobody knows what "Deema" stands for

Base prices will be uploaded soon. Sorry about that. All frames are custom built and shipping fees are different depending on a country thus the price may vary a lot

And you did not like it, right? The frame must have been built between years 2005-2006. First frames had smaller OD stays thus leading to more flex compared to frames made in 2007+. The other thing is that customers order Ti for its slight spring and flex effect and ask me to use thinner stays. Hi Ben, That's GBP 595 including postage to the UK Thnx Dmitry Yeah, I have had many orders on frames with 375mm CS. This is more like eastern european trend. English guys usually go for 380-385

Je crois que je dois envoyer un Triton en France for free testing Because that's just funny. You have never tried the thing but you compare it to other products. Yes, Ti is different to Alu. But hey, I can make same frame either more or less flexy by just choosing different tubing and stays design. For XC frames we use 18mm tubes (chainstays and seatstays). For trials frames we usually pick 22mm tubing (1mm walls). Trials stays are shorter (average trials CS are 375mm for a 26" bike and the XC CS's are 425), etc etc. The seat tube angle on the trials frame can also vary the frame feeling. And the way stays are connect to the top tube. Everything counts. I can press two ends of an XC frame together with a hand. I can't move them much on a trials frame. I have gone through many frame designs and listen to the feedback from each customer. Nobody ever disliked Triton for its springy feel. They usually dislike the price But that's what titanium has always been...

Hey, how many broken Triton frames have you seen? Sure fewer then I did. I didn't see many. How many Triton frames did you ride to say they ride like a spring? WTF?

There's a temporary blog: http://tritonframes.com A nice website will be there soon The price of a frame including shipping to the UK starts at GBP 595...and up to whatever depending on what the customer wants it to look like. Thanks Dmitry PS: Michael, I love your bike! Dunno how light or heavy it is. But it should feel awesome. Enjoy

Hey Mike, I will be sending you the photos of your two frames soon

No, it's a custom made frame for Mr. Eskimo. It is neither bmx nor trials. PS: This bike is sick. I wish I could try it out. May come to the UK another day... But damn, you guys have rear brakes on the left side. Bugger It's good to be a frame manufacturer though. I can make one for myself

Dan, thanks for posting up your bike! It is a nice bike and by looking at the rotor guard I can see you are using it the way it is supposed to Your bike is the second Triton with the rotor guard ever made. The first one is my white Triton. I have now received quite a few inquiries on adding the rotor guards to the ordered trials and street frames. 2Monty Man Sam: You can email me at info@tritonframes.com or PM me. Thanks, Dmitry

You can try your friends' frames, see what you like and dislike, then we can make up something that suits you. Easy. But I know what you mean

Made those 26-29" unicycles for 4" Surly tyres

Thanks! Height is the main issue yeah

LoL I gotta discuss that with our engineer... But the fact is Ti hardens when used outside in winter. Especially when it's very cold But I don't think it's the case Can you please measure the Rubber Queen fitted on your rim? In mm, its width and height from rim to top? If you have it already on the wheel. Thanks

UKP 585 including shipping to the UK

You are welcome! Just PM or even better email me to order. We don't have a website yet as the project had been left for a long time. We will have a tiny site in December. Any geo is available, inquire yours or I can advise you some. Yes, there is an option to ship the frame to South Africa. No problem about that But it's more expensive than EU/US. The frame + shipping to South Africa will be around US$ 995 (don't know which currency is more suitable for you). My girlfriend also suggested me to barter the frame for an emerald produced in South Africa hehe Most of these frames live lot longer lives than alu frames. There is a bunch on ooooold frames being used quite hardcore here in Russia. Weight depends on the geo and number of gussets used. It varies between 1550 to 1700'ish grams. Thanks again! Feel free to contact me anytime Woooow! That was so long ago! This was the beginning of Triton. The frame looks like the end of 2005. I am so glad to see these frames still running. And I can see the development too. The welds now are a lot more neat. Nevertheless the new frames are slightly heavier due to the use of longer gussets on the down tube and stays. We significantly reduced that "rear tyre buzz" effect by using larger diameter tubing for seatstays and chainstays. So the frame is stiffer now. But that affected the weight. Thanks a lot for your post! Please share a photo of a complete bike Would be nice to see it Cheers!

Hey guys! I am back to TF Nice to see you and the topic! Thanks! R&D, I have uploaded the photos at Flickr for you. Here we go:
