BikeCAD How To Forum

Hello from Peru.

I just start to use the BikeCAD and it is awesome, thak you very much, is really useful.

But, i need your help: i just put the numbers to decide the height of the frame, but i don't know how to decide the length of the seat stays, chain stays and the reach. I use a cross country bicycle.

Can you help me with that?

Hey-

The User guide videos were super helpful for learning how the curving functionality works, as was the offset video. Thank you for those!

However, I'm running into an issue while trying out an elevated chainstay design. I can't quite get the chainstay and seattube to join up/miter correctly. See picture.

Here are my numbers:

Chainstay length: 415mm

Hi! I need to join one extra tube to another extra tube in my project. I can't see that option. Is it possible?

I'd like to view the effects of installing an angleset (angled head set) on my bike to see what is does to the trail and other measurements and don't see a way to do this. Since head tube angle is part of the frame dimensions, I can't lock the frame as I would if I was adding a different fork. If I unlock the frame and change the head angle, it causes the head tube length and probably other frame dimensions to change based on my entered stock reach and stack heights.

Thanks for any suggestions or future features!

Hi people, in online BikeCAD version, how we can get all of the measures of the frame???

hi

this is my question, how I can measure the distance between axis in wheels?

If someone has made a BikeCAD drawing in the free version, say the following: Trek Madone RSL https://www.bikecad.ca/1460232225953 Is it possible to download that as a BikeCAD file then email that to be opened by someone who uses the Pro Version? There is a "Download BikeCAD file" tab but when selected, I just see the following:

Is there a way to apply different colour to the front wheel and the rear wheel.

And the front and rear tyre as well?

thanks!

Hi all,

In my design, https://www.bikecad.ca/1459607072404, if I select one of these drivetrain gear combos:

Chainring 1, Cog 7
Chainring 2, Cog 2
Chainring 2, Cog 8

...my chain snaps! Seemingly only in these gears with no extra links. If I put in an extra link, different gear combos snap the chain. Easiest to see if you choose not to display the crank. Wierd. Can anyone suggest why this might be?

Thank you very much for free BikeCAD, I love it.

Best, Benjamin
