BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

I can't seem to find it, so if it's in there, please forgive me. I'm looking for the dimension on spacing in between the seat stays from the inside edges rather than from the center of the stays, much like the inside dimension on the chainstays.

Thanks in advance.

Why does the seat tube appear as an oval in the auxiliary stay view? I can't figure it out but I assume there must be a reason for it.

I just purchased PRO and am very excited to put it to use. I've playing with it for a while now but for the life of me can't find where to see all the actual frame dimensions other than in the boxes that I have to open.

How do I display the angles, tubes lengths, dimensions, frame jig figures, etc, etc? All I can see is the bike that I've designed. I need to see the numbers needed to actually make a bike.

I'm sure it's easy, but I'm not familar at all yet.

Thanks in advance.

Is there a document that shows what all of the dimensions is, across the program? I'm a new user and finding myself getting lost a litte, and occasionally struggling to find an obvious dimension that I swear I had earlier. Right now, I'm trying to find the chainring / chainstay clearance dimension and can't for the life of me. I've tried searching to no use.

Thanks in advance!

After a pretty rough week in which the logic board in my laptop suddenly quit, the fusion drive on my desktop quit and a drive failure in my NAS which corrupted the whole system, I'm ready to start paying for cloud services to ensure better data stability in worst case scenarios like this.

Currently, when I try to open a file in BikeCAD, I only see local options. Is there a setting that allows me to access everything I can see in my Finder window? Specifically, I'd like to be able to use iCloud Drive as my central repository and barring that, my NAS.

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has run into the problem of BikeCAD Pro reading files as if it's not the Pro version, i.e. selecting and modifying certain frame values within a .bcad file is not permitted (greyed out). This happens in some (not all) files every now and then, and will appear seemingly at random. The problem persists through opening and closing the file, and rebooting my computer. I'm running on a Mac.

P.s. great software

Thanks so much!

Hello,

I've bought a set of DR06 dropouts from Ceeway and I'd like to be able to use them in BikeCAD 15. I can model them in my CAD system [VisiCAD] but is it then possible to import them to use in my design?

Cheers,

JB

Hello folks,

I've forgotten what the ISO 4210-2 Annex A,b value means and what is a 'good' value to aim for.

Cheers,

I'm slightly confused on all data points to measure to build a saddle. Any tips would be great, if they could be broken down in pairs that would be great. IE A and B then C and D etc..

Thank you

Good morning!

I´m desing a frame that the seat stays finishes on top tube, but the seat stays is contact in seat tube.

How do I this mitering?

I believe that the program hasn´t it.

Thanks a lot!
