Japanese term or phrase: クロモリ材料
材料 is "material", obviously, but I can't find クロモリ. I don't think it is a misspelling of クローム (chrome).

English translation:chlome molybdenum steel (OR chlomoly steel)
Explanation:
I used to like bicycling, and back then chlomoly steel was a material of choice for high-end bikes for its strength (therefore for its light weight). It is a high-strength steel, rather than an alloy between chlome and molybdenum (so it is mostly steel (iron) with a little bit of impurities like chlome and molybdenum).
