Well, I wasn't initially going to post this one but since you brought it up...

Good point. Bottom bracket threading, too.

The more I think about it...I've got really good measurements of the fork and the bottom bracket drop. I'm getting good at the head tube and seat tube angles. I think those are the most important bits. I'd like to get better with the tube lengths but I don't feel that 5mm will make a huge difference unless you're gonna try to build another one. I'd like to do that sometime but since I've already got them I guess I was just thinking of a way to compare frames. Yeah, someday I'd like to build one.
