What were your final measurements in degrees for the bend at the end of the main beam up to the forward headtube, and what was the length of that section?


Did the "fins" you added forward and aft of the steer tube improve the stiffness of the frame? What diameter and thickness of tubing did you use for the main beam?


If you've got an updated schematic with your dimensions and geometry choices I'd love to see it!


Thanks a lot for all the info you've posted already, I've been scouring the internet for info on builds and trying to piece stuff together.
