Top tube length
So i did a quick fit from competitive cyclist. I will have to go back and do the measurements again with my wife. For now however it has my top tube length at 77.1-77.5??? Can this be right? Right now I am riding on a 58cm bianchi but I am not finding any bikes with top tube length of 77.1??
Seat tube range c-c 55.9 - 56.4 Seat tube rance c-t 57.7-58.2 Top tube length 77.1 - 77.5 Stem Length 9.2 - 9.8 BB-Saddle Position 175.0 - 177.0 Saddle-Handlebar 43.7 - 44.3 Saddle Setback -8.5 - -8.1 |
Have somebody else measure next time.

Do you think perhaps you have a problem with the numbers you entered? Looks to me like you did the leg part correctly and completely screwed up the rest.
A 77 top tube is beyond preposterous. But such is the power of online calculators. We want to believe the result, right? |
you're doing it wrong.
you must have done the sternum notch and/or torso length wrong. what values did you put in? I believe that will answer the question. |
This is what i inputed in inches. I just assumed my crude job would be a bit closer...I guess not
Measurements ------------------------------------------- Inseam: 34 Trunk: 23 Forearm: 10 Arm: 21 Thigh: 11.5 Lower Leg: 23.5 Sternal Notch: 64 Total Body Height: 73 |

Measurements ------------------------------------------- Inseam: 34 Trunk: 23 Low Forearm: 10 Arm: 21 Sounds very low. By about 3 inches. Thigh: 11.5 Also very low Lower Leg: 23.5 Sternal Notch: 64 Total Body Height: 73 Also you can't really measure yourself. It is easy to be off about 2-3 inches without the help of someone else. |
I think your sternal notch is somewhat high. That leaves 9in of room for your neck and head.

Fixed...albeit still off as I havent had someone else measure me. I was trying to be a bit more precise this time.
