I like the science behind this but try to find the geometries of bikes in one location to compare? To compare several bikes you need to go to several bike sites. It would be nice to have a central location for this the way Bikepedia put together the specs on many bikes. Interesting.

This means that your seat tube angles are shallower than they are when you a really riding. 71.4 degrees for the seat tube is unlikely in the normal position.

Of course, some of you may have asked how I got to the ‘proper bicycle fit’ part — this outlines my experiences with a professional bike fit and discusses the effects of this fitting on my riding.

We also had two pieces by Ashwin this week — a review of the Avid Juicy 7 disc brake on Monday and a discussion about comparing the geometry of two different frames on Tuesday. On Wednesday, Greg posted up the third in his series of four articles on the mountain biker’s road trip.
