Mike Schmitt: Dream Geo
Feb 26, 2010 By : The Heavy Pedal
We’re chilling at Mike’s house here in Richmond, VA. We all got onto bikes and geometries and Mike was so juiced on the subject that he pulled out his Trick Track post on his dream geo for us to post up. We thought we should share it. He got really deep into the detailing.
From Trick Track:
Do any of you guys find yourself drawing frame shapes and geos out? I wish I could custom-make my own frame to be a perfect mix between track angles and 26″ BMX. I made this mock-up just now for fun. Does anyone else have a dream geo or bike design? I would love to see bikes with higher BB for less pedal strike and the ability to run dual pegs without hitting the cranks and bb.

The fork would be like 395mm A2C, chainstay 405mm, toptube 575mm, standover 765mm, fork rake 28mm, fits 26″ x 2.5 tires, mid BB, HTA 75, STA 70 to change this to fit 700c I would make the fork 410mm A2C and chainstays 415mm. All of these numbers and angles are pretty rough but it would be awesome to see FGFS bikes go in this direction. Also, I would love to see track cranks and drivetrains 100% out of the picture.
