Tighten Up Your Rapide F1 EVO with a ROCHE Graphite Brace

Fitted to the Rapide F1 EVO, the ROCHE 220109 Rapide F1 EVO Graphite Chassis Brace C20120 reduces unwanted chassis movement to improve steering precision. The graphite material offers stiffness with minimal mass penalty for nimble handling.

Improved Steering Feel for Competitive Runs

This brace helps the chassis maintain a predictable platform, making steering inputs more direct and repeatable. It is especially useful when lap times depend on consistent entry and exit behaviour.

Best Conditions to Use a Graphite Brace

Graphite braces are most effective on high-traction tracks or when tyre grip exposes chassis flex. Adding the brace can stabilise the car and make fine suspension tuning more effective.

If the conversion keeps the original mount locations it will bolt on easily. If mounts are altered you may need to fabricate small adapters or re-drill mounting points.
The graphite brace is light so it has minimal impact on overall balance. Placement can slightly shift mass, but changes are usually negligible compared with batteries or electronics.
Inspect mounting holes and fasteners regularly for wear and ensure screws are snug. Avoid over-tightening which can crack thin graphite sections.
You may notice firmer response at low speed due to reduced chassis flex. Small suspension tweaks will help restore the desired slow-speed behaviour.
