moorepants/BicycleParameters — Issue #12: Can't use predefined bike parameters and the rider config parameters

If you only define the geometry needed for configuring the rider in the measured parameters input file and want to use a bicycle that only has the benchmark parameters explicitly defined then you have to use Bicycle(... forceRawCalc=True) to make the measured parameters evident for the rider configuration calculations, but the program fails because it then tries to compute the benchmark parameters but there are no measured parameters defined.

Possible solutions:

1. Put the rider configuration parameters in a different file so the forceRawCalc=True flag isn't needed when creating a Bicycle object.
