The evolution of winning continues with the Chase RSP 5.0 frame's latest iteration being a culmination of refinements and upgrades brought forward from the day Connor Fields first jumped on the RSP 1.0 and started his domination of BMX racing in the USA, and onto an Olympic gold medal. The RSP 5.0 shares its racing winning geometry traits with the carbon ACT 1.2 Chase frame, at a price that will let you throw all the best parts at it.
In fact, the RSP 5.0 is slightly off the ACT's game by being offered as a disc only frame with a redesign of the dropouts allowing for better clearance for a wide array of disc brake calipers, improving the overall braking performance, and now compatible for both post and flat mount disc brake system. Here at LUX we've witnessed the gradual move towards disc brake only frames and we are totally behind this design movement as it allows the youngest of riders to properly control their bike with a disc system requiring only a fraction of the finger strength that a conventional V-brake set up needs.
Additionally, the Chase RSP 5.0 Frames feature tapered headtube (Expert XL and above sizes), an Aero Seat Post tube, Enclosed Rear dropouts, Press Fit Bottom Brackets (Expert XL and Above), Triple and Double Butted tubes, Hydro and Muscle formed 7005 T6 Premium Ultralight tubing. RSP 5.0 Frames now feature a new internal cable routing from the head tube, through the down tube & bottom bracket, and exits out of the chainstay (Expert XL and larger), and for the Mini – Expert, the cable exits out of the bottom of the down tube. Internal routing keeps everything nice and tidy and combined with the lack of brake posts and mounts, gives the RSP 5.0 a super sleek look. Especially when it is paired with the new colours and graphics of this latest model.
For those that love the OS system, there's big news for the RSP 5.0 with TWO OS20 frame size options being offered up. There is specific geometry for riders wanting to use OS20 wheels, forks, and tires. OS20 uses the oversized rims, tires, and forks to give larger riders a more comfortable ride as well as experience all the benefits of OS20. There's a real following building for the OS20 system among the older riders in the sport, and for riders looking for a pump track scalpel.
