BikeCAD Feature Request

If there's a feature you'd like to see added to BikeCAD, suggest it here.

Frame Weight Estimation

I was thinking a cool feature would be a frame weight estimation tool. All of the tubing dimensions are already in the program, as well as the frame material. So maybe something can be done that calculates the tubing volume and multiplies it by the materiel density. Obviously there are different grades of frame material, so the option for the user to enter the material density would be useful as well.

Great program! Thanks!

'Delete' does not return to 'My Designs' screen

From the 'My Designs' screen...

- select a design

- select edit

- select Delete

- confirm Delete (couldnt this be a pop-up dialog, not a separate screen?)

- after delete, the Home screen is displayed

... but I executed the Delete from 'My Designs', and that is where i expect to be returned to.

Alternately, is there a faster way to delete one or more deisgns directly from the 'My Designs' main screen?

Save (overwrite) and Save As

Currently, the 'save online' function does a "save as", and creates a new version instead of over-writing the current one.

Would be nice to have Save and Save As - I don't always want a new version created, often I am happy to over-write the previous one.

Hub dimensioning

Would it be possible to have the hubs in the wheel building menu have different size flanges and spoke crosses?

It already allows different offsets, but to get spoke length data you then need to spec 'different' wheels each time.

couple of view suggestions

Awesome program so far.A couple of things: I think a blueprint mode with regards to the display would be helpful. Kind of like the printouts I get from Guru when I send in coordinates for a custom frame

Also a way perhaps to download digitized images of stock frames with geometric coordinates and view with varying seatpost/setback positions and different stem/spacer combos. For example, I might want to compare what two sizes of Pinarello Dogma frames with the same saddle position and handlebar position to look at the amount of seatpost showing on each successive sample.

When a standard crank is created can you please leave the length to be chosen and not frozen?

Rigid fork design

Would it (or is it) possible to have a rigid fork design with a drop out not on the centerline?

It would be the equivilant of the T dimension on a suspension fork.

Either way could a blade angle of a straight blade fork be obtained from the streerer tube?

Thanks,

Cyco

Bug reports and feature requests on canti boss colors and center pull brakes.

First, the rear canti bosses don't take on the color of the stays in "stays" color schemes, but rather they remain the main color (i.e. "1st"). This does not happen with schemes like "spear" and "two/three color angled."

Forgive me if this is already on the site. I just found this site and made(what I think is) a killer bike design. I would like to add a font for my design. I have a specific theme and it won't work with out the font. Please let me know if this is possible or if I need to send the font to the web person.

Thanks a billion for this site. I will be sharing it with friends.

Thanks
Jordan
