I have no clue - something non-US I am guessing. Some kinda weird/different stuff on it... 1.5 headtube, downtube/chainstay cable stays, reverse dropouts. Looks like it was designed for a really long fork. Interested to find out more about it myself.
the djs over here are realli limited and overpriced lol. like erm...a steelhead is like 650++ for the frame alone which is like 400++usd. the guy got this frame from his racing friend. the friend says its a cannondale f400. i think thats bull haha!
That would explain the 1.5in headtube wouldnt it? headshock?
oh...being ignorant here but, normal djs headtube are of what size? but the f400s geo is totally different, lest im blind =/

normal head tubes are 1/8inch and 1.5inch for big single crowns. the frame in the first picture is just a smaller size than the second.
Make sure you get edjumacated on that headtube before you start ordering parts, you'll need some specific stuff.
you can get a steelhead for half that. Shipping might cost you though, and customs.
haha thanks for the advise! i just went down to the dealers, and the ns bitch frame over here is 850 here =O LOL the dobermann pinscher was like 1100. =/ im planning to get a used frame for about 200? trying to get it from overseas =D oh i havent took the black frame from the guy yet, maybe i shouldnt? =DD
measure some Geo numbers and post them up. could be a nice frame. and ya, you can get steelheads in the US for less then $200. mite want to see about that.
I would say an old school cannondale or an ironhorse possibly
