I would have had that for you a couple of years ago in printed format, but that is long gone.

ASA conducts their own test(s) on submitted equipment. The original standards were along the line of the ball leaving the bat and travelling at approximately 125' per second.
I do not know if that has ever been adjusted.

However, if you check ASA Rule 3.1, A-O, you will not see any mention of any BPF or the level of 1.2.

Thanks,
