I live in Styria, Austria

My passion is bicycles - especially handmade bicycles. After building two bicycle frames myself, I stuck with virtual frame building: rattleCAD.

rattleCAD 4.0 supports your bespoke bicycle frame design and build process with a fully parametric bicycle model and is fully written in Tcl/Tk.

In this design process, rattleCAD 4.0 guides you through several steps

  • Bike Fitting,
  • Geometry Definition,
  • Frame & Tube Refinement,
  • Selection of Components and Review Summary
  • Selection of FrameJig and Export Workshop Drawings including Tube Miters
