Is this what bike fitters do to assess leg length discrepancies. About 1/2 Ann inch is considered normal range afaicr.
There is also apparent leg length differences, these are when there is an obvious difference but not shown in the measurement. Usually this comes from the hip and truck alignment instead.
I have my wife measured it for me. She measured from the center point between my legs (not sure what word for that) to the ankle bones of both feet. The bike fitter just do that by his eyes, he did ask me to different positions so he could observe, but I am not very convinced.
