This bike is a normal road bike: 59cm seat tube, 57cm top tube, average bottom bracket height, etc. To begin the full scale drawing, I plotted only the points required to hold the seat post, rear wheel, fork, etc. I did not draw any frame tubes yet. This bare bones geometry formed the skeleton. In the next section I describe how I fleshed it out. B) Shape. I designed a shape that is distinctive and appropriately proportioned for the loads I believe a bicycle experiences.

Trying to balance out the weight, strength, frontal area, looks, and doability is exciting to me. My bike is a beam bike, with the beam integrally made as part o
