Illustration 3: Example for frame construction: separation of the seat stay Straightness and stiffness of the frame For the smooth operation of the Gates Carbon Drive System, the frame needs to be straight and stiff. These requirements are specified in the Gates Technical Manual for Frame Builders. Furthermore, the adjustable range of lengths between bottom bracket housing and rear axle should be between 16 and 30mm, to guarantee a sufficient tensioning function and the possibility of changing the gear ratio.
