Buyer didn't review the drawing ?

small point = head angle is in degrees, fork rake is in mm
and neither can be changed without other changes.

You don't get a drawing. You get a list of measurements. And
it doesn't make much sense unless you have the tools to draft
it out for yourself and know exactly what to look for.

But it would seem to me that you could add just a few degrees
of rake and reduce the increased trail from this and the
handling would stay the same. Though the wheelbase would be a
touch longer.


I got drawings. Several iterations of them too.

From whom? American buildings can use drafting software that other
countries find too expensive to use since you have to have a
computer and a printer and the drafting software. When you get 10
orders for a custom build a week and you have for the last 50 years
it's unlikely that you'd see a need for a computer to do your
bookkeeping as is par for the course in America.


This statement sounds a bit (a few decades) out of date. What
country is it that you describe where bikes are produced in which
Japanese cars, PeeCees, and so on are uncommon?
