In English and Spanish · in millimetres or inches

Everything you need to go from design to workshop

Three fork types

Unicrown, crowned and segmented, each with its own measurements and dimension diagram.

Live drawing

Front, side and top views redrawn with every change. Dimensions you can move, hide and restyle.

Fabrication measurements

Developed length, bend dimensions, mitres and cut lengths, ready for the workshop.

1:1 outputs

Fabrication sheet and templates as full-size PDF, and the complete drawing as PDF and layered DXF.

Standard brake mounts

IS, post mount and flat mount discs; cantilever, V-brake and rim caliper, with Shimano and SRAM dimensions.

Components

Dropouts, mounts and fenders placed on the blade, with their drilling positions.

Clear warnings

Wheel clearance, gaps and incompatible measurements in red, with what to change to fix them.

Import from BikeCAD

Open a .bcad file and reuse the fork dimensions you already have.

What it looks like

A 45 mm tyre won’t fit between the blades: “Fit to tyre” widens the fork and the warning clears.

Frequently asked questions

What does the free trial include?

For 14 days: the full unicrown, with all its measurements; crowned and segmented forks can be viewed but not edited. The trial has no downloads or fabrication measurements, and one design can be saved.

What is the difference between the perpetual licence and the subscription?

Both give access to the whole program. The perpetual licence is paid once; the subscription renews every year and can be cancelled at any time.

How do I pay?

With PayPal. Your licence is activated as soon as the payment is complete.

How do I cancel the subscription?

From “My account” in ForkCAD or from your PayPal account. You are not charged again and keep access until the end of the paid year.

What happens when the trial ends?

Your designs stay saved in your account. To keep using the editor, choose a licence.

Can I use it on several computers?

Yes, by logging in with your account, but on one device at a time: logging in on another closes the previous session.

Does it work on a phone?

The home page and your account do. The editor needs a computer screen.

Are my designs private?

Yes. They are saved in your account and only you can see them.

Can I import my BikeCAD designs?

Yes: opening a .bcad file loads the fork dimensions it contains.
