I'm thinking of lashing out 99 Euros to buy it, but I'd like to know if anyone's used it, is it hard to use & will it do what I want, anybody used it? Is there anything similar/better?

Link here if you're interested: http://www.tonyfoale.com/

Cheers, Mick.

Excellent! Just want to play with linkages & shock rates on the trackbike, make sure what I'm doing isn't stupid really. Is it worth the 99 Euro price?

I was going to get that books years ago when i got excited about hub steering.

The man knows his stuff from what i read, I don't read gud :)

When I get to that project on the list I will be buying it without a second thought.

I have a pdf version of Foale's book, I've done a lot of reading and didn't really learn anything new, however if you haven't read it, or done any other geometry reading it's worth while. I haven't used it, but a couple of mates swear by his software..
