Hello,

I am building a Super 73 style frame, inspired by vintage motorcycle (https://super73.com/collections/super-73-north-america/products/super-73-v1-2018), is there any model i could start from?
There are many curves and speciually the fact of having double tubing makes it confusing to design correctly...

Thanks and best regards

Hallo Brent,

Where can i find the Bosch eBike system ?

Best regards Dave

I can't use the touch screen of my Surface Pro to zoom in or out anymore with 14.0, pretty sure that was possible before.  The previous versions of BikeCAD don't run either so I can't test it.

Hi, I'm using the standard version of Bikecad (online), and the main issue that

I've it that the app is only working on Chrome and is very unresponsive.

Is the Pro version significantly faster?

I've easily installed new fonts in previous versions of BCPro but I have a problem putting them on v14.0 on a new PC. 

The new fonts are installed on the PC and appear in Word etc but not Bike CAD even after app and PC restarts.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I may have missed it somewhere but I am wrestling to get the correct Chainline on a bike I designed. The major problem seems to be to define the length of the bottom bracket spindle. I can enter all values except this one. My OLD is 110 on a specific design where I would want to use a beltdrive system. The issue I get is that the front cog will either touch the right chainstay or whenever I use a longer bottom bracket spindle the belt will simply slide of the rear cog because the chainline is incorrect. I use standard tapered 68mm BSA BB's.

Any way to get the seat tube length from the Ebike motor cabinet to top of the seat tube?

I have noticed that these 2 dimensions:

 1) Saddle Tip to Brake Hood (Direct)

 2) Saddle Tip to Brake Hood (Projected)

... on a road bike diaghram I create are almost always of equal length/measurement.  I assume "Direct" is meant to represent a diagonal measure from the saddle tip across to either one of the brake hoods while "Projected" is a midway point between both brake hoods. IF my assumption is correct, then these two measures should always be different with the Direct being the longer one.

Hi - How do you Model sloped Fork Crowns to get the proper Dimensions?  For instance A 7 Degree Sloped Crown and 45 degree Raked Fork Blades should be about 70mm of effective rake.  There doesn't seem to be a way of doing this except for putting in a fork with 70mm of rake and doing the math yourself.

There is the Angle Dimension Box you can change but it doesn't seem to do much.
