BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

Hi Brent,

When viewing the seat stays at the dropouts in the auxiliary view, the "edge to edge at rear" dimension gives a value higher (177) than what I'm getting when placing the stays on the dropouts in my frame jig (~167). I use this dimension to set up my seat stay mitering fixture. I believe this inconsistency is causing a small problem with the calculated miter angles on both ends of the stays.

Hi,

I'm trying to model a Ribble CGR AL size S for a client, to see if he should choose a S or M

I've entered all the data I can find online about the bike from Ribble and geometry geeks. I can't get the wheelbase to match up. Where am I going wrong?

Brent,

Just having a play with the new features, and finding it really intresting.

With the weight part, can you please add a material selection option? Though it may already be there, and I havn't found it yet

Thnaks,

Chris

Hi,

I am having a problem with modelling a handlebar based on the sweep and rise figures in degrees. Am I missing something? If so, is there a solvent less damaging that acetone?

sorry if this has been dealt with somewhere,

hello, is there a way to do full suspension for mtb?

-thank you

Hi Brent. I am trying to update to the latest version. When I click on files in my account, it says there is nothing there, nothing downloaded or purchased. I bought BikeCAD in late 2018, maybe early 2019. Ive never updated so figure i should ! Thanks, Paul.

Hi Brent,

I downloaded version 20.1. The AI feature sounds really cool, however when I click on the brain icon the window that appears shows a spinning wheel but nothing happens. I let it do its thing for 10 minutes but it was still spinning. Does this feature take a while to process?

FYI I'm running this on Mac OS 13.6.1 Ventura.

Thanks for your help.

There are 2 types of Schindelhauer tailhooks, can they be added to the Gates belt drive system?

Hello Brent,

I just updated to FreeCad 21.1 on my PC. I tried opening my BikeCAD files in Freecad but get a bunch of errors in red in the report view instead of a solid model. I used to be able to open my BC files in older verisons of FreeCad.

So I tried to install the BikeCAD macro to see if that would work but I get the error "Something went wrong with the pip install/upgrade of requests, possibly does not exist"

I'm running BikeCAD pro V19 on a PC.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

is what my (v19.0, windows) version looks like- there doesn't seem to be the option depicted in the tutorial and which I could swear I'd seen previously. I'm on Windows 10 and the latest update of Java etc.

Did something change or have I messed it up somehow?
