Geometry, every size, from the maker's table
The tinted row is the size drawn beside it. Press a size to draw it.| Size | Stack (mm) | Reach (mm) | Head angle (deg) | Seat angle (deg) | Head tube (mm) | Chainstay (mm) | Wheelbase (mm) | Standover (mm) |

The table runs on to the right: 6 more columns after Reach. Scroll it sideways to read them.
The 56T drawn to scale from the table, with no build on it. Stack and reach run from the bottom bracket to the top of the head tube; every size is solved from those two. One square is 100 mm.
The maker's cockpit
No stock cockpit I can name, so every size is solved on a generic stem and bar unless you choose one on the sheet.Generic stem and barAssumedNo bar is listed for this frame.

How I read the maker's table
Sizes come in R (regular) and T (tall) pairs at each nominal size, the T with a taller head tube and shorter reach, so stack and reach do not rise monotonically through the list (as designed, "proportional geometry"). The sheet's first pages give the headset top cup stack: Strael, Secan and Holt 8 mm (Hope Cup 2) / 8.2 mm (Chris King Inset 7) / 8 mm (FSA); Faran 17 mm (Hope Cup 1) / 17.7 mm (Chris King NoThreadSet) / 17 mm (FSA); stack is to the head tube top (stack_datum "head tube top"), the cup sits on top of it. Eight sizes only: 51T, 54R, 54T, 56R, 56T, 58R, 58T, 61T (no 51R or 61R in the Faran 3.0 sheet). Trail for 700 x 38: 53.3/50.1/50.1/50.1/50.1/47/47/47; for 650 x 2.2": 54.2/51/51/51/51/47.8/47.8/47.8. The 60 mm fork rake gives the low trail. The previous Faran 2.0 / 2.5 table is fairlight-faran.json; the sheet's page 7 for it matches that file on every cell except standover, printed 3 mm lower here (763 to 854, "with 700x45 tyre") than in the file (766 to 857, from the separate Faran 2.0/2.5 PDF), reported for Carl. Model year: not printed (null).
