measuring frame angles
Today I was messing around with one of my older frames. I'm thinking of maybe doing a 650B conversion on it, and I wanted to see what I needed to do to get the handlebars into the relatively high position that I need these days.
I'm supporting the frame and fork on my surface plate so that the center lines of both axles are in the same horizontal plane.
Once I had the frame set up on my table I realized that it was a good way to accurately check the frame angles.
I was measuring with a protractor head from a Starrett tri-square, which doesn't have super fine resolution, but the angles appear to be very close to what they were supposed to be... It's a miracle!
