BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

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?

I'm designing a frame with curved seat tube.

The setting is 1 curve using method 2. But don't know why the minimum S1 i can set is 4.1mm. My aim is a curved seat tube with zero S1.

Everytime I set the number below 4.1mm, it just got stuck, cannot progress. When I try to save the file in this stage, it got stuck too or, more worse, the file got corrupt and can't be open anymore!

Do anybody encountered the same issue?

Is that any setting I've got wrong? Is the S1 has a minimum limited value??

Please help!

Thanks in advance.
