so i have been TRYING to fit myself to my bike. because the cheapest bike fit around here is 130$ (and hes very experienced) so today, i have been adjusting and riding it for about 5 days.

oddly i feel more comfy in a racing style position. flipped my stem, moved my seat back, lowered my seat a little bit.

but ive been reading this article and im wondering if i need a longer crank arms?

"Some research has been done to determine the optimum percentage of leg length to crank length. I doubt that there is an optimum percentage that would apply to all people. One writer in a major magazine article quite a few years ago claimed that after considerable testing with many different riders, 18.5% of the distance from the top of the femur to the floor in bare feet should be the crank length."

anyone can tell me about this? and any tips on fitting me to my bike until i get at least 130$

oh and also, i have a felt f95 60cm
175mm crank. im looking at a 177.5 or 180 mm maybe? would this help my fit? or power output? my top femur to the floor is 28in. possible 29 in.
