Measurement Guide

The perfect size and fit ensures optimum comfort and power output when riding, whether you are commuting daily, cycling on a sunny Sunday afternoon in the countryside, racing or touring around the world. We are all individuals with different torso length, shoe size, length of arms and legs. The beauty of a custom-built frame is that it’s built to suit you. A one off, crafted to your exacting requirements.

Customers visiting our Derby workshop can be measured on a specially designed jig, where skill, time and patience ensure a correct frame size and design – tailored to match your needs.

If a visit to us is inconvenient we can build the right size frame by using a few key measurements – overall height without shoes and inside leg measurement will allow us to build you a frame with the right seat tube height and top tube length.

  • A = Overall height, without shoes.
  • B = Height to collar bone, where the two collar bones meet, without shoes.
  • C = Inside leg measurement, down to the floor, without shoes (not inside leg measurement for trousers).
  • D = Inside leg measurement, down to the floor when kneeling
  • E = Length of arm from shoulder to middle of hand

Or, if you are happy with our standard sizes, you can also choose your frame size from the following table:
