new website for a geometry modification calculator for bikes

[outreachfirstclass]

Hello everyone,

I picked up a new bike-related pastime to fill the emptiness because I have been injured for the past month and a half and won't be able to ride for another month or two.


In order to share the bike modification Mehrwertsteuer Rechner calculator I've been using for the past few years, I made the decision to dedicate my free time to creating a website. It could be helpful if you enjoy tinkering with your bike.
The geometry modification calculator is the main feature of the website, while there are a few other calculators as well. It will compute the new geometry if you alter the wheel sizes, fork offset or travel, or add an angleset. There are other ones out there, but this one is a little different. If you're interested in that kind of thing, give it a try.

I was just experimenting with it, and the figures are nearly exactly right. This is fantastic.



I'm glad that was helpful to you. I hope it comes in handy later. In the FAQ, I explain in some detail how it differs slightly from the others. The way the anglesets are handled is primarily to blame.

You can either choose to enter the new axle-to-crown measurement directly or by selecting the other radio button. The axle-to-crown measurement is automatically calculated on the original side and will most likely differ from the fork manufacturer's published number because the headset cups and bearings will always add a bit of length between the bottom side of the headtube and the fork's crown. The thicknesses that I calculate are included in the axle-to-crown measurement.
I've discovered that estimated measurement usually adds about 4-5 mm over the fork's declared figure. So if your fork is 551 mm published and the calculator has it at 555 mm based on the calculations done on the geo chart inputs you provide, the additional 4 mm in the calc is really the headset cup thickness and should be included in the updated geometry side also. That's why I propose dealing with the changes between published figures rather than inputting directly.

I hope my lengthy response wasn't too unclear.
