Help me figure out pad x/y

This is a ST road show fit Slowman did a couple years ago. Short amount of time on the bike but I remember it being comfortable and it looks way better than anything I've gotten myself into! So I'm trying to replicate this on my bike.

Can someone help me figure out what the Pad X/Y is on this fit?

Can you email that store and ask them to measure the DFU? Or if a store on ST could volunteer that info.
If we have the length of an easily identified segment (like end to end on the silver side plate) then we can resolve the other measurements with reasonable accuracy

Or maybe seat height B.B. center to top or rails?

When I looked at this earlier I thought the best you could do is measure all of your angles and replicate them on your current bike.

Didn’t I leave you with a sheet of paper with fit coordinates written down?

I don't remember getting that. If I did, I definitely lost it!

who knows? i usually left my victim with a fit sheet on which was scribbled a set of coordinates. i didn't keep a record. the best i could recommend is to see if you can get the bike shop to allow you to recreate the position and then measure pad x/y off the fit bike.
