SolidWorks Geeks

having trouble with a bicycle design i have made and using in motion analysis. I am trying to spin the wheels while reciporcating the assembly side to side (mimicing a leaning motion). I can successfully do these motions seperate however similatneously i cannot do. I think the problem is the belt drive is not moving with the assembly. sketch appears to stay in place. I do not know how to ressolve this problem?

yip that is what i want but i also want to get the entire assembly moving side to side as a leaning motion, so something needs to be changed im guessing with the belt drive and motion analysis does not calculate correctly.
How about using a path mate if that suits.
how do you do this?
I don't know either but will have to try
hmm not sure exactly, cannot seem to view file. i have set my biycle with mates along path. dont know how to keep object fixed at a tangent to the path face. and dont know how to add a relationship between the man pedalling and the distance covered along the path. I saved bicycle and man object as a part. but then cannot move legs. do i open parts all indivdually in a new assembly not sure what to do...
