BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

Is there a way to add drop out designs into BikeCAD Pro? I have engineering drawings of them so wondered if there was a way of inputting the information so when exported to FreeCAD the bike would look more representative of the final product

Happy to put in the leg work, just wanted to know if it was possible and what format the information needed to be in

Adding dropouts

BikeCAD does have various dropouts stored within the program as described here. I can include yours as well. I'll need a 3D STEP or IGES file in order to include them in the FreeCAD export feature. A 2D drawing in DXF or PDF format would be helpful for including the dropout within the regular BikeCAD interface. You can send them to me by email.
