Hello

Front Center

Posted on November 23, 2023November 24, 2023 by travisjamesallen in Personal Projects

Often I want to know the front center of an existing bike frame, but very few geometry charts list this value. However, geometry charts almost always list the wheelbase, bottom bracket drop, and chainstay length, and the front center can be calculated from these values. Here is the relationship:

FC=\left(\left(WB-(RC^2-BBD^2)^{1/2}\right)^2+BBD^2\right)^{1/2}
