I just asked my 25 yo son this question. His immediate answer:
"Okay, if you put your hands together, and put them in your vag... and can still clap, you know you have long arms."
I don't know where he came from.

67" wing, 63.5" height.
No wonder WSD bikes don't feel right on me! I have a short torso but ape-tastic arms.

To Knotted Orangetang's list I'll add:
If you learned to sew just to get sleeves (and pants) long enough - and start by adding 2 inches to sleeve length - yep, positive ape index.Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

I'm about a +3; have always had problems with sleeves too short. I guess it was an advantage when I was a climber.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...
