I'm assuming this is a steel frame....


Frame Angles
*Headangle = 72.5∞
*Seatangle = 72.5∞ (71.5 if using a straight post)

Major Lengths
Wheelbase = 1088.5549 mm
*Seat tube length (c-t) = 690.0 mm
Seat tube length (c-c) = 638.6374 mm
Top tube length (effective) = 632.68585 mm (Might be a tad long for a commuter)
Top tube length (c-c) = 630.00476 mm
*Head tube length = 200.0 mm (215)
*Bottom bracket height = 271.5 mm
Bottom bracket drop = 77.5 mm (70)
*Chainstay length = 440.0 mm
*Front Center = 660.0 mm

Fork and Headset Specs
*Fork offset = 45.0 mm (48-50mm would be better with 72/72.5 HTA)
*Fork length = 400.0 mm (might be a tad short)
This is a rigid fork
*Lower stack height = 11.0 mm

Stability Info
Trail = 62.855465 mm
Jones stability criterion = -2.4148805
Relative front projection = 0.06759858

Tube Diameters
*Seat tube diameter = 34.9 mm (31.8)
*Top tube diameter = 31.8 mm
*Head tube diameter = 38.1 mm (36)
*Down tube diameter = 50.8 mm (38.1)

Seatstay Info
*Seatstay diameter = 22.2 mm (16mm if using caliper brakes)
Direct distance from rear axle to center of seatstay at seat tube junction = 566.4608 mm
Sideways angle of seatstay = 6.1623745∞
Seatstays are straight
*Distance from top of seat tube to center of seatstay = 40.0 mm
*Location of center of seatstay at seat tube junction (0∞ = rear of seat tube, 90∞ = side of seat tube) = 45.0

Bottom Bracket Info
*Bottom bracket length = 68.0 mm
*Bottom bracket diameter = 57.2 mm (38.1)
Chainstay angle relative to horizontal = 10.356807
Seatstay angle relative to horizontal = 67.59641

Welding Clearance Info
*Head tube extension above top edge of top tube = 8.0 mm (10mm)
*Head tube extension below bottom edge of down tube = 10.0 mm (15mm)
Gap between bottom of top tube and top of down tube at head tube junction = 90.58825 mm
*Seat tube extension above top edge of top tube = 40.0 mm (20)
Extension of outer face of BB from side edge of chainstay = 3.7928886 mm
Gap between inside edges of chainstays at BB junction = 15.585777 mm
