umm......considering how close modern frames are in terms of geo...they arent really all too similar. distinguishing features here are BB height, SO height and rear end, all of which are different. The rest are all pretty standard. Both frames are nothing special in my opinion.
edit: Also, the killorado's weight is for a 20.25, the hell stallion comes in a long TT, id assume they take the weight from that 20.8? model so they dont even weigh a similar amount, really!

Nah, but your didnt pay US$440 plus shipping. I just think its a bit weird that colony think they can charge that much for a frame in the US, which is made made in taiwan. There frames RRP here are a little less then fits, s&m's etc and it just doesnt seem right...
Most people on the US bmx forums think that although colony makes dope stuff, being more expensive then every other company turns people off buying colony products.
Having said that though i think the hell stallion and bloody oath frames look rather sexy.

colony prices
prices dont really seem all that bad or colony stuff if you take into account:
American dollar is always better than ours. so say an american brand wants 200 frames built in tiwan (sp?) it will cost them less to build plus ship back compaired to Colony/ Tempered any other aussie company
after the frames are shipped to aus they are priced to suit (cost for build, shipping to aus, then shipping on top to next destination)
no point in runing at a loss now is there.

Oh okay i see where your coming from now, and US $440 is a lot of money compared to other frames on dans.
And i agree with that those new frames look awesome. cant wait for my new bike, only a week now

I think they will be the same price or more then the s3.5's because they are made from the same tubesets as well as being welded in the US. Steel prices have also probably gone up since the s3.5 was released...
