Linkage: Mountain Bike Suspension Simulation Software

Linkage is a suspension simulation and design tool used by bike engineers, frame builders, and enthusiasts to model how suspension systems behave under real-world conditions. If you've ever wondered...

How to Read a Bike Geometry Chart: A Practical Guide

Every mountain bike comes with a geometry chart — a table of measurements that defines the frame's shape, angles, and proportions across all available sizes. If you know how to read one, you can...

How Tires, Tubeless, CushCore & Tire Pressure Affect MTB Suspension and Ride

Your mountain bike's geometry and suspension get most of the attention, but your tires are where the rubber literally meets the trail. Tire choice, tubeless setup, inserts like CushCore, and air...

About Us

Bikometry is a discipline focused on the science and art of understanding the geometry and linkage of mountain bike frames and their suspension systems.

This intricate field studies the angles, distances, and details that define a bike's performance on various terrains. Every aspect, from the head tube angle to the chainstay length, influences how the bike behaves.

Linkage, which connects the rear wheel to the bike frame, combined with the suspension, ensures smooth rides by absorbing shocks from the terrain.

By understanding bikometry, whether you're a designer, professional rider, or enthusiast, you can optimize bike performance, choose the right model, or even craft a custom bike. Dive into bikometry with us and explore the nuances that make mountain biking exhilarating.
