bike geometry to body size

JacksonHeightsOwn

alright lads

im looking at buying a new bike online, but i really want to make sure i get the correct size for my body

is there anywhere i can put my measurements, so i can see what top tube lenght should be, height etc.....

or would anybody be able to help with that kinda thing???

sorry for sounding a lazy fcuker, but im not too up on what i should be looking for exactly, and help or guidance would be great

Canyon do a pretty good one but it's fairly specific to their bikes. You should be able to work out the equivalent top tube length though, which can be carried from bike to bike even when their actual top tubes lengths differ. After that it's really just about getting the stem length, seatpost setback and saddle position correct.

Might be an idea to get a proper bikefit done. The figures they give you can then be compared to bikes online

Charts at Dave Moulton.

FWIW these charts gave me a top tube length about 5mm shorter than a measured bike fit, but I have a long back.
