Before I bought a new bike, I was comparing geometry of my choices just by looking at the numbers. But I wanted to also see how the bike look, so I wrote a super basic app to draw a bike using geometry data.

This is the info the app needs:
  • name of the bike
  • wheel diameter
  • head angle
  • seat angle
  • reach
  • stack
  • wheelbase
  • chainstay length
  • seat tube length
  • bb drop
  • fork offset

Other four optional parameters are:
  • offset_seat
  • offset_head_top
  • offset_head_down
  • debug


If anyone is interested I can provide more info about this parameters, or anything else.
The app generates images for each bike from the provided file or a single image with all bikes on top of each other.

Here is a demo:

You can download it from here:

The archive includes the app, an example file, and the python source code.
