Many posters recommend looking at bike geometry and comparing it to one's body type to aid in selecting a bike. However, when I pull up geometry on a manufacturer's website, I can't tell if the top tubes are longer than normal for a certain size, etc. Can anyone point me to a manufacturer that would be deemed average, typical, standard, or whatever word you like best? I'm thinking I could then compare other bikes to THAT spec for a relative reference.
Just in case I get lucky this time, what about a response to a question I've seen at least 2-3 times on this board with no response: what torso to leg length ratio would be deemed normal, vs. long legged or short legged?
