Handcrafted in the USA from seamless drawn 6061 T6 butted aluminum, this frame delivers the race-proven geometry Crupi is known for, now refined with wrap-around seat stays, a slightly shorter seat tube, and an all-new built-in Disc Adapter - no axle-mounted adapters required. Designed for riders between 4'5\" and 4'7\", the 18.5\" top tube puts junior racers in an aggressive, efficient position from gate to finish line.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  Every detail of the Catalina 2.0 has been engineered for stiffness, strength, and race-day consistency. Tear-drop shaped chain stays, squared-off tubing ends for maximum weld surface, and parallel axle slots ensure the frame geometry stays locked in no matter where you set the rear wheel. Whether your young racer is stepping up to their first competitive season or chasing podiums at the national level, this frame is built to keep up.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSA Handcrafted:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every Catalina 2.0 frame is hand built in the USA - quality controlled from weld to finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6061 T6 Butted Aluminum Tubing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seamless drawn construction for a strong, lightweight race frame that handles the demands of competitive BMX.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18.5\" Top Tube:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed specifically for junior riders between 4'5\" and 4'7\", delivering proper fit and race geometry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in Disc Adapter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully integrated disc brake mounting - no axle adapters needed.

Parents and coaches trust Crupi frames because they're hand-built with exacting standards - not mass-produced overseas - and the attention to detail shows in every weld, tube shape, and dropout design. The integrated disc adapter future-proofs the build, letting your rider upgrade to hydraulic disc brakes as they progress without needing a new frame. With consistent geometry, proven materials, and a design that's won races at every level of competition, the Catalina 2.0 is the frame serious junior BMX racers have been waiting for. And because every frame is made to order in the USA, you know exactly what you're getting - a purpose-built race machine crafted with American pride.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView Product Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeamless drawn 6061 T6 butted aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTop Tube Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.5\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRider Height Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4'5\" to 4'7\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Tube\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\" Integrated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBottom Bracket\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEB24 Euro BB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAxle Slot Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/8\" (10mm), parallel to ground\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDisc Brake Compatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTektro, TRP Evo, TRP Slate, all Shimano hydraulic kits (120mm rotor required)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eV-Brake Compatible\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - brake posts included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry of Manufacture\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA (hand built)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat disc brake kits are compatible with the Catalina 2.0 frame?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe Catalina 2.0's built-in Disc Adapter is compatible with Tektro, TRP Evo, TRP Slate, and all Shimano hydraulic disc brake kits.
