Bike Geometry Calc for Mullet setups

Is there an online calculator that will allow different wheel sizes?

I'd like to see how BB height and HA changes with mullet setups. I'd also like to figure out what crown-to-axle would be needed to keep the HA the same if the front wheel was changed from a 26er with suspension to a rigid 29er. Is BikeCAD the only tool that will do this?

Thx.

Why not use BikeCAD?

By the time I passed the 11th grade, I had learned all the geometry and trigonometry necessary to do this.

Fine SohCahToa,

I drew it out, made a few estimates, including suspension sag and did the math.

But don't make me try to remember how to to calculate Eigenvalues, Hamiltonian functions, Lagrange multipliers, etc...because I also learned those in high school but that doesn't mean I need to do it on a daily basis.
