From the S&M Website
“We’ve been getting requests for basically the same frame for awhile now and this is it. The Dirt Bike has a 74.5 head tube, taller stand over and a 14” rear end. Built with SuperTherm tubing, this frame is light and strong. It’s not available brakeless, it uses a regular seat-clamp, there aren’t any holes drilled in it for lightness. This thing looks like a regular BMX frame that wasn’t designed specifically for tail-whips, nose wheelies and hang fives! In other words it’s a fucking Dirt Bike. Get off the World Wide Interweb and go haul ass on a Dirt Bike.
Available in classic powder-coated S&M colors Black, Yellow and Red with retro Dirt bike graphics.
Like all S&M frames the Dirt Bike is proudly Made in the USA.

Butted/Air-hardening SuperTherm tube set
SuperTherm is a proprietary superthermophillic (heat-loving) alloy, developed in partnership with the U.S. Steel Alliance. The composition of Chromium, Molybdenum, and Vanadium with an unprecedented 217 ksi ultimate tensile strength makes this alloy actually gain strength through a metallurgical transformation in the heat-affected zone as a result of welding or brazing. SuperTherm is highly temper-resistant, resulting in an 11% increase in fatigue life and a 20% increase in impact strength over Heat-treated 4130. The increased mechanical properties of SuperTherm allow for incredibly strong, yet lightweight frame designs with that legendary feel of steel ride quality.
