These frames are hand-built one at a time in the USA, ensuring a level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that mass-produced frames simply can't match. The updated geometry and built-in disc compatibility mean this frame is ready for today's fastest racing classes right out of the box.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  For parents and coaches investing in a young racer's development, the Catalina 2.0 offers long-term value with its robust 6061 T6 construction and versatile brake compatibility. Because demand often outpaces supply, Crupi maintains a priority list to ensure dedicated customers get first access when new frames arrive - a testament to just how sought-after these frames really are. If you want to put your young rider on a frame that's trusted on race days across the country, the Crupi Catalina 2.0 is the one to have.\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\u003eTop Tube Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.75\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRider Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4'2\" and under\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\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\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 (Hope, Avid \u0026amp; mechanical kits do not fit)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRotor Size Required\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120mm (Crupi Disc Adapter kit 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\u003eOrigin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandbuilt in the USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat size rider is the Catalina 2.0 Micro Race Frame designed for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe Catalina 2.0 Micro Race Frame is designed for riders 4'2\" and under.

Compatible brake systems include Tektro, TRP Evo, TRP Slate, and all Shimano hydraulic kits.

Crupi keeps new frame orders in production at all times.
