I laid a hardcover book on my saddle and measured to the bottom of that.
I just cut a slot on a piece of PVC or wooden dowel, end of tape measure on that, helps to have a tape measure that reads metric. My wife helped, showed my inseam at 83cm. The online calculator says multiply your inseam by .883 to get saddle height, set as middle of crank at b0bracket to top of saddle.
As well, throw out aby shorts that are old and stretched. I get maybe 3-4 years out of my cheap PI shorts. I just invested in expensive Assos, they are worth it
