It’s important to have information about the previous bikes that you have owned. Even if I’m building you a bike to correct fit issues, I still need the information from bikes prior. The measurements that I need are fit related. If you have any other information about your bike’s geometry I would love to have it for my records as well.
The fit measurements I need from you are:
Handlebar to floor – Measure from the center of the handlebar to the ground.
Saddle to floor – Measure from the top of the saddle to the ground (measure at the middle point of the overall saddle length)
Saddle setback – Tip of the saddle to the center of the bottom bracket spindle. (Using a plumb-bob is the easiest way to measure this)
Saddle height – Center of bottom bracket spindle to the top of the saddle (measure at the middle point of the overall saddle length)
Saddle to handlebar – Measure from the tip of the seat to the center of the handlebar.
