Invest Cast Yoke By using invest casting BSD are able to create a chainstay yoke that creates more clearance for the tyre when your wheel is slammed. Also, because this part is cast and heat treated it significantly strengthens and stiffens the rear end of the frame. Invest Cast Dropouts The dropout is cast as one piece, which is significantly stronger than a plate welded to a tube. At 7mm thick, it provides superb support for the rear axle when smashing features during each run, and the small shape has been designed for grinding meaning there's no overhang to catch on ledges or rails. The dropout is heat treated before welding making it extra tough and it features integrated chain tensioner bolts inside it's every street riders dream. External Gussets To handle the pressures of modern riding, BSD have achieved excetpional strength by using a combination of butted tubing and external gussets. The highest concentration of stress on a frame is at the junctions between the headtubetoptube and headtubedowntube, which BSD have paid particular attention to reinforce, without increasing the weight for an exceptionally reliable and robust freestyle frame construction.
