Description

The Chase ACT 1.2 Carbon BMX Frame in Black/Slate is Chase's Advanced Carbon Technology race frame, a UD carbon monocoque built to take the power of top pros without feeling too stiff. The ACT line has won UCI World Cup Championships and the USA BMX #1 Pro title, and over the past 2 years has taken more UCI and USA BMX Elite Men's Pro wins than any other frame. Connor Fields and Joris Daudet spent over 10 months on the ACT 1.2 before release.

Frame details

aero.jpg

Aero seat post: Chase brought the aero seat tube, post and clamp to BMX racing on the ACT 1.0 and RSP 4.0 frames. It helps gain fractions of a second on the track and adds a slightly stiffer feel.

bb86.jpg

Press Fit bottom bracket: your bottom bracket's bearings sit in cups that press into the frame, removing the risk of damaged BB threads found with a traditional Euro BB.

tapered.jpg

Tapered head tube: 1 1/8" upper and 1.5" lower diameter. Use 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.

icr.jpg

Internal cable routing: the brake cable runs inside the top tube for a factory look, and since it never rubs the frame, the cable and graphics are protected.

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.
