BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

Hi there,

As a little project for myself to try and get the hang of using BikeCAD Pro, I found a bike I like the look of and got all its available dimensions as seen in the attached picture. I'm wanting to practice drawing up, but on some dimensions when I put it in alters some others! So how can I stop that happening? Also is there away of altering the the dimensions from the drawing screen rather than the primary dimensions box?

Your help will be most appreciated.

Thank you

Darren

I could swear I once could show the clearance dimension between the rear tire and the stays, but I can't find how to toggle that dimension again!

Thanks

Alex

How do you get the standard / ghost bike to not display after I have adjusted the frame sizing?

Hi

I'm having a hard time working with BikeCAD Pro on my laptop. With 2160x1440 on a 12" screen all icons are way too tiny. How do I increase icon size by 2?

Hi

I'm working with BikeCAD Pro on my laptop which is connected to an external screen half of the time. At some point I must have moved the "Display" window onto the secondary screen and today, with only the primary screen available, "Display" didn't appear.

I figured out that by changing

<entry key="LocY DISPLAY">1662</entry>

in dialogs1.xml to

<entry key="LocY DISPLAY">162</entry>

Hi. Does anyone know if it is possible within BikeCAD to fix the frame dimensions so that when the fork length is changed the bike will pivot around its rear axle? I would like to find out how a frame whose dimensions I know with a long fork on it would be affected with by a shorter fork (i.e. what would the new head angle, bottom bracket drop, etc now be). I've tried a few different things, but every time I change the fork length the frames dimensions change to compensate. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Brent,

It is possible to extend BikeCAD for Cantilever Bridges?

Greetings from Germany

The usual dropout dialog box is blank and there is no dropout option in Tandem dialog box. Is there a way of choosing dropouts for a tandem design in the same way as for a single bike?

What am I missing?

Cheers

Hi folks

I wonder how i have to enter data in the tubing-size section in order to create a mitering template for tubing which is neither round nor oval, like for exeple some Columbus and Deda tubes.

Concretely i'm working on one of the Spirit top tubes which is kind of oval, but with a flat top and sides. The diameter is given as 31.7mm, dimensions are 33.5x28mm.
