Functional or versatile?

Had same problem between two bikes, good advice above about saddle nose, use a plumb line, the seat tube angle can really throw it out. Also check crank length.

Hi,
As above custom frame builders are supposed to advise build to suit your body proportions. Although I just did a ti one for an Xacd frame so that's a bit different.
Used rattleCAD, free download seemed better than BikeCad, comes with a template to start you off. Is easy to change toptube length etc, changed to a 73.5 seat and 72 head tube angle. Worked out the fork rake for right trail, altered the top tube angle for compact looking frame. Head tube length based on a current bike.
Not sure if I've missed anything important? Spose there is tube sizes to think about too.

In the dry negligible, in the wet and especially muddy big difference. Perfect for winter bikes.
