Good job. How did you copy and save the jpeg out of BF? I didn't think you could do that.

Place mouse pointer over image, press right button on mouse, and select Copy Image option. Then paste into something like Paint. Which is all that I have done.

Right Click > Save Image As

Thanks Billy. It's made a big difference to how my cycling goes, too. Machka has lost 25kg, and that has made a tremendous difference to her cycling, particularly climbing hills. That's why we are slowly getting back into LD riding.

Wow. If those are accurate, then [MENTION=345108]UnfilteredDregs[/MENTION] has body proportions very similar to mine!

p.s. You have to click on image and then you see dimensions nicely
pps If your HT is as long as your schematic says, you are going to have a harder time picking a fork.

It's amusing to me that the Fizik beastie calculator classifies me as "snake".

A saddle calculator that describes you as "snake". Hmmmm... which part of the anatomy are we talking about here?

There's a calculator? I always thought you were supposed to reach for your toes and your flexibility determined your saddle spirit animal.

Seriously. There should be a new thread in the 41 so that all of the pedantics can opine about it.

Doug28450 11-20-15 03:57 PM

When I ran through the Fizik saddle calculator I did not see an entry for "Can you see your toes?"

I've been classified as "rat" on the interwebz as well.

They obviously need to find more spirit animals.

It's amazing how much room there is in a 2.5 car garage when it's been cleaned and organized. Heck, I bet that I could fit two vehicles in there and still have a little room left over.

For the record, I was not one of those making fun of you for buying 27" tyres.

I can find other things to make fun of you about.

...thank you. This seems like a reasonable approach. :hug:

Not really, it's quite simple.

When selecting a fork, you start from the outside and with each course work your way in toward the plate.

The little ones on the outside are for hors d'oeuvres and salads and stuff. The big boy next to the plate is for the serious eating. :thumb:

I've never seen a Fizik calculator. I just checked the website out of curiosity and it's still just the three guys doing a toe-touch.

It's highly unscientific compared to the Bontrager and Specialized approach with different widths in each saddle, etc. To make matters worse, I'm clearly between a Chameleon and a Snake according to the stretch chart, but when I was putting in serious miles, I loved my Aliante, which was the Bull saddle. Go figure.

Or as [MENTION=130160]rjones28[/MENTION] would say, "Whatever."

We really need a slow clap smiley for this sort of stuff right here.

Don't you worry, he received a stern tongue-lashing from me for that, sir.
