Bikes: Giant iguana

There might be some software out there but all the framebuilders i kno including myself just use our own calculations written down in spreadsheets, the measurements are usually for how big the top tube and seat tube are or just the bike in general and the rest of it is basically just a lot of trig and calculations to get the right head and seat angle for you. Those angles, although other things like bb drop and wheelbase also affect it, are the main factors that determine how twitchy your handlebars are and how far your weight is put forward, which obviously depends on what you want in your bike.
