Sunday Silvawave Frame
Sunday Silvawave Frame
-
Known for his upbeat energy, dipping a mean toboggan, dropping great video parts and winning Silver at X Games Real BMX Best Trick and more, it was only a matter of time before Brett got to call the shots. From colorway to dimensions, the Silvawave is the frame Brett wants.
The Silvawave is 100% 4130 chromoly, and features Sunday’s signature dent-resistant wave down tube to give riders a little extra peace of mind when sessions don’t go according to plan.
Additional refined details like an integrated seat clamp, tapered stays, removable brake hardware, hollow dropouts and integrated chain tensioners can also be found on the Silvawave.
Brett's preference in geometry provides a stable 75° head tube angle, a longer 13.45-13.70” chainstay, and a tall 9.5” standover to give it the proper ride-feel that builds confidence at speed. All this makes the Silvawave an affordable and versatile signature frame that’s designed to handle Brett's burly riding style when he's ON A TEAR and much more.
Key Features: 100% 4130 chromoly frame Brett Silva signature geometry. Removable U-brake hardware and Gyro tabs Integrated seat clamp Wave Down Tube: Down tube dents can significantly weaken the front end of your bike. The Wavelength's double-butted, 1.45" diameter down-tube features Sunday's proven Wave shaping to help fight against denting from rails, ledges, coping and whatever else happens to get thrown at it. Miter Cut Top Tube: A miter-cut top tube creates a precise joint with the seat stays during welding. This increases the strength substantially over frames that use a “sandwiched” top tube at this critical junction. Tapered Chain & Seat Stays: Both chain and seat stays taper to provide a refined and clean look to the frame while still providing strength. They are both angled on the inside for improved chain clearance and weight savings. Hollow Dropouts with Chain Tensioners: Hollow 8mm wide dropouts are as light as a solid 5mm dropout, but over twice as strong. There is a small internal chain tensioner to hold the wheel in position and to simplify wheel removal.

FRAME SIZE CHART
Frame sizing is very much a personal preference: some riders like them longer, others shorter. Here's a rough guide - if you have any questions remember we are here to help!3ft - 3ft 8" - best suited to a 16" BMX bike
3ft 8" - 4ft - best suited an 18" BMX bike
4ft - 5ft - 18" to 20" top tube
5ft - 5ft 4" - 20" to 20.25" top tube
5ft 4" - 5ft 8" - 20.25" to 21" top tube
5ft 8" - 6ft - 21" to 21.25" top tube
6ft plus - 21" top tube or longer
| Rider Height (in) | Rider Height (cm) | Top Tube Length |
|---|---|---|
| 5' | 152 | 20" |
| 5'3" | 160 | 20.5" |
| 5'6" | 167 | 20.75" |
| 5'9" | 175 | 21" |
| 6' | 182 | 21.25" |
| 6'6" | 200 | 21.5" |
FRAME GEOMETRY
Frame geometry can take a bit of understanding - but here at SourceBMX we are here to help! The first thing to understand is that BMX frame sizing is best measured by the length of the top tube - shown here as TT. Keep reading on to understand how the angles change how your frame will feel!
Head tube angle determines the angle of your forks. A steeper HT (i.e 75°and higher) will make the bike turn quicker than a mellower angle (i.e 74.5 and lower°). The more responsive the frame, the more twitchy it will feel, especially at high speed!
Seat tube angles don’t vary too much (around 71°) and affect the centre of gravity. The steeper the angle, the shorter your bike will feel. Some frames have a mellower seat tube angle (example 69˚) which makes for a longer frame without actually being longer and reduces how fast your frame turns.
The chain stay is essentially the length of the rear end of the bike. A shorter CS length will make the bike more responsive and a longer one more stable. As a rough guide a 13.5" long chain stay is about average.
Stand over height is essentially how high your frame is. A frame with a low standover height is more responsive and easier to 'throw around' whilst a high SO height is more stable; particularly useful when going fast.
