[Feature Request] Alternative disc brake mount dimensions

BikeCAD Official
1

Problem Description
The way the disc brake mounts locations are dimensioned, for both post and flat mount, is a bit unintuitive.

Question
Would it be possible to implement a dimensioning option that matches how SRAM, Shimano etc specify the locations?

So the main inputs in BikeCAD would be the “A”, “B” and “H” (plus hole spacing) dims in the attached image (relevant dimensions circled).

BikeCAD was initially set up to dimension IS type disc brake tabs. Since that dimensioning scheme could still be used to define post mount or flat mount, I did not think to account for other dimensioning schemes. However, I have just added an additional option to account for the dimensioning schemes more commonly used for post mount or flat mount.

Thanks for the suggestion.
