Random fact

[lozcs]

So there I was...

Waiting for the lift at work to take me to the basement to measure the stem bolts on my bike as was looking to order some new rust free ones online and decided to measure the circumference of my head.... (?)

22.5 Inches

Which as it turns out is EXACTLY the length of the top tube on my bike...



Thank you

God knows, maybe Claud Butler once saw me and liked the size of my head?

I'm getting confused. Does your bike now have a hat size?

 

[lozcs]

No, just wondering where to match up the various measurements from Man and bike à la Vitruvian Man

Just don't post your stem length

Is that including the nuts?

I like random threads like this - they can often bring a smile to your face.

The length* of your elbow to your wrist is approximately the length of your foot from heel to toe.

*So I've been told, I've never tested it myself, just said "Ooh, I might measure that sometime", but never have.

Someone has to ask this question.........Have you measured your helmet then?

I think the OP already has. 22.5 inches he says. Blimey

Whilst you are randomly measuring your body parts, you could rule straight lines down from your ear lobes and discover that they will line up perfectly with your nipples.

Useful info.
