heh-heh. I can see myself approaching my dh saying "Hi, honeeeeyyyy - would you like to measure my gonies tonight?"
I've been waving measuring tape around all week as it is.
But my problem was really this: I'd like to compare the distance from where I sit to the bars (both vertical drop and horisontal reach) on all my 3 bikes, to see how different they are (or aren't). But measuring from the saddle is a bit tricky, as the saddles are different lengths, and I don't sit on them the same way. But can't I assume that if each saddle is fitted in the same way*, each saddle, or more precisely, my actual sitting point, will have the same vertical and horisontal distance from the pedal on each bike?
In that case I can use the pedal, or bottom bracket axle since all my cranks are the same length, as a starting point instead of the actual saddle.
(*in my case knee-over-pedal-spindle and heel-on-pedal-plus-a-little)
