wheelbase - the distance between the axles of front/rear wheel. longer is the 'UCI frame' and ranges from 1060 to 1115 or something crazy. the older trials frames were something like 1020 to 1050.
for mods, 1030 is considered long, and 1000 is short. measurements are in millimetres.
bb drop - the height of the bb compared to the line from axle to axle. if the bb is 20mm higher than the axle it's written as +20. if it's 20mm below it's -20.
dropout - the place where the wheel's axle slots into the frame/fork.

These pics took me a few days to draw up. Notice the pro finish.
