In my case, I'm looking at making a plate out of flat aluminum I can weld to the 1" square tube frame. I'm a bit rusty from my mechanical drawing days. Getting back into it for this project so please forgive me if I'm not understanding. I'm not sure if I will build from seat stay or chain stay reference, but ideally I will be able to accommodate my frame above or below the axel and caliper (1" / 25mm square tube).
When I'm looking at your Seat Stay drawing I interpret the drawing this way:
- Middle drawing, I need 7-8mm flat material. Easy peasy.
- Angle "I" seems to be missing (and important) as is dimension E...
- Are these measurements for 160mm or 180mm rotors?
Can anyone help me fill in the blanks?
Thanks in advance 😃
