SolidWorks Training Example #17: Designing an Electric Bike Frame This tutorial is designed to help users of SolidWorks develop their skills in designing a complex part - the electric bike frame. To complete this exercise, follow these steps: Step 1: Launch SolidWorks and create a new part document. Step 2: Begin by sketching the main frame components, including the fork, head tube, seat tube, and chainstays. Use the rectangle tool to draw rectangles for each component. Step 3: Extrude the rectangles to create the solid parts of the frame. Use the extrude tool to give the parts their final shape. Step 4: Add a few bolts and nuts to hold the components together. Use the circular pattern tool to place multiple bolts at once. Step 5: Assemble the entire bike frame by combining all the individual parts into one solid assembly. Tips: * Make sure to use the right units for your design, such as inches or millimeters. * Use the mirror tool to create symmetrical components quickly. * Practice using different tools and techniques in SolidWorks to improve your skills.
