CrGe is a transition-metal germanide with the B20 non-centrosymmetric cubic structure. It does not exhibit any magnetic order in fields up to 60 T but the temperature dependence of the susceptibility and resistivity indicate its proximity to ferromagnetism [1]. Since CrGe has no inversion symmetry, it was expected to exhibit anti-symmetric spin-orbit interaction with split dHvA frequencies which are field dependent [2]. We present dHvA-effect data that were obtained employing rotatable capacitive torque magnetometers in a 18 T/30 mK and a 33 T/340 mK system. We found a clear field dependence of the dHvA frequencies as well as enlarged effective masses as was expected from the enhanced Sommerfeld coefficient of γ = 19 mJ/mol K2
