BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

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,

Mathias

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.

Hey Brent,

I'm using sliding dropouts (Allotec) for the first time and ran a full-size printout to help figure things out. When I measured the print to confirm there wasn't any scaling issues I noticed that the dropouts are spaced about 146 or 147mm apart not the expected 135mm (internal geared hub).

Are the dropouts represented in the aux view the "body" of the dropout and not the insert?

Thanks
