Of course someone has done this! It was (cleverly) called the Frame Geometry Project!! Looks like the most recent bike was 2008 Rivendells.

Wow, this is exactly what I had in mind. Thanks for pointing this out. Wonder how the info was gathered. I'll inspect the backend once I'm near a computer.

On a side note - when you say every frame is different. Is this down to every angle and tube length? I mean, are there no rules of thumb or windows of measure used on a given frame type you consider while designing a frame? For example, do headtube angles fall within 2 degrees of each other for 80% of road bikes?I imagine there are general rules, and that's what I wanted to look for in the data. But this approach might be short sighted!

Thanks again!
