Description

The Chase ACT 1.2 in Black/Sand is a carbon monocoque BMX race frame built from uni-directional (UD) carbon fiber, with a race record that includes UCI World Cup Championships and USA BMX Elite Pro wins. This colorway pairs a matte black finish with gloss sand graphics, on a frame with a tapered head tube, internal brake routing, an aero seat post and refined chain clearance.

  • Aero seat post tube with integrated quick release seat clamp
  • Press Fit BB86 bottom bracket with reinforced alloy cup
  • 20mm reinforced stainless steel enclosed dropouts with integrated alloy chain tensioner, plus a 10mm (3/8") axle adapter
  • 2 chain tensioner systems, internal and external, to use the full dropout length with the optional Elevn disc brake adapter

Frame details

aero.jpg

Aero seat post: the aero tube, post and clamp (also used on the Chase ACT 1.0 and RSP 4.0 frames) help gain fractions of a second on the track and give a slightly stiffer feel.

bb86.jpg

Press Fit bottom bracket: the bottom bracket you supply has its bearings in cups that press straight into the frame, with no BB threads to damage as on a traditional Euro BB.

tapered.jpg

Tapered head tube: 1 1/8" upper to 1.5" lower diameter, so you can run a tapered steerer fork, or a full 1 1/8" steerer fork with the 1.5" lower bearing when the headset has an optional 1 1/8" to 1.5" fork race.

Internal cable routing: the brake cable runs through the top tube for a factory look and doesn't rub against the frame, protecting the cable and graphics.

Please note: brake fluid that is not silicone-based can act like paint thinner and make paint peel. Do not let brake fluid touch any part of the bike.
