| Features | Ultimate RC carbon frame: The Ultimate RC carbon frame is light and comfortable and meets the highest quality standards established by the BH team for the MTB frames. The Ultimate RC 2013 frame is manufactured in T24 carbon under the tube-to-tube process, with three different thicknesses to provide greater rigidity to more delicate areas and increased flexibility to other areas, enabling the carbon to be compacted and moulded precisely and the resin to be distributed evenly to filter any vibrations. In developing the Ultimate RC frame, the BH team worked closely with leading manufacturers of carbon fibre and resin to create a frame that provides an optimum level of comfort and weight. The construction of the tubes and the lay-up configuration of the carbon meant BH could produce a frame with an optimal geometry and minimum vibrations to guarantee the rider a high degree of comfort. Throughout the structure, the carbon fibres were arranged taking into account the weight and force they would have to withstand, with the aim of strengthening the delicate areas and lightening areas that don’t have to bear so much weight. The result is a top-of-the range frame which guarantees stiffness, lightness, strength, elasticity and maximum absorption The design and technology applied in the shape of its tubes and the curvature of the seat stays make the behaviour of the Ultimate RC agile, reliable, and comfortable. All these enhancements made to the frame have enabled BH to build a highly rigid frame with a low weight of just 1,280 grams in size S, when unpainted. Direct Mount front derailleur anchor: The Direct Mount derailleur offers a high level of quality and reliability in the front derailleur anchor. Its development, fully integrated with the frame, gives greater rigidity and accuracy when shifting gears. The design makes adjustment extremely easy. EVO Brake Mount System: The chainstays have been developed specifically to accommodate the EVO Brake Mount system. Its optimum tilt angle reduces brake vibrations on the rear wheel, increasing braking power and reducing the annoying noise produced when braking. The new location in the chainstays protects the rear brake calliper from potential snags and knocks, thus increasing safety when racing. Geometry: BH has kept the exceptional geometry achieved by the Ultimate over the years. The Ultimate RC is a highly responsive endurance bike designed to optimise performance. |
