Hello
You may have seen our protoype [url= https://geometrygeeks.bike ]Geometry Geeks [/url]site a few weeks back.
We've made it more betterer with a fancy geometry upload tool that lets you copy and paste a whole geometry table, and add multiple sizes at once. Hope you like it.
We've also integrated a database of mostly 'vintage' road bikes wot someone else had built up about 10 years ago, and gave us permission to use. Perhaps more interestingly there's now about 190 recent (2012 onward) frames of various flavours.
We're speaking with about 5 smaller UK manufacturers about adding entire ranges and back catalogues, and thats coming along nicely.
Have a look! If it breaks, let us know - there's a neat wee feedback widget on the site too.

Nice idea, in vein of the weight weenies site... I shall probably be geeking on there.
Couple of STW nit-picky suggestions (note viewing on mobile):
An image or illustration(s) to go to go with each listing might be a nice idea.
Plus being able to sift the complete listings by bike types (keywording) i.e. 'MTB' 'Fatbike' 'DH' 'Timetrial' 'Cyclocross' etc... Simply because must users are probably going to be searching more by their preferred niche than manufacturers/brand names...
Top work fella.
Cheers!
Yes we're working on images - we have something in development that looks great on desktop but not yet on mobile... may have to make it desktop only.
Good thought on filtering listings by type.

I thought it came out quite well on mobile actually (portrait).
I love this idea and well done for getting it so far.
Would it work for users to add bikes Wiki style? Neither of my road bikes, a Specialized and a Bianchi are listed or my Trek mtb.
I think the more bikes you can list the more likely it is going to become a popular refrence.

Wilburt - yep that's exactly the idea. Anyone can add a bike. Have a go!
We've tried to make it as easy as possible so if you copy/paste a table from a website, it works out what each column/row is. Not perfect by any means, but not bad for a dumb computer.
