Revbigdog - 2008-09-22 1:39 PM Interesting bump --- I will say looking over the data - it just confirms that I am in fact built bizzarely.  I am 76' (6'4" with a 30" inseam.  for a .39 ratio. ...

You ARE a FREAK, being 76 feet tall!

 also i wanted to correct that the torso as was measured for the aesthetics experiments

You're assuming the original intent of the post was for the aesthetics experiments, which it is not.  If you read the original post, it is in relation to bicycle fit.

Bah I was asked to use the SHIFT key at least 8 times in that sentence...which as we all know in forum posting is akin to Shakespearean English!

Subject: RE: What's your inseam length compared to your height?
granted i dont know what your torso length is, but for your height the average inseam length for a male 70" is 33.74in (http://robyn.faeriemanor.org/BodyProportions.phtml), so you must be pretty close to the ideal....so i wouldnt worry about having short legs


I'm 179cm tall and 86.5cm inseam. (for those of you who prefer to measure things around the groin using King George's thumbs that's 70.5" tall and a 34" inseam)
I always though my legs were long relative to my body but I guess I'm kinda normal (at least in this one respect).

From what I see on this thread, either the majority of BT'ers have short legs (relative to their bodies) or are not measuring proplerly. My understanding is that a cycling inseam measure is NOT the same as a tailor's inseam measure.  To do a cycling inseam measure, take a big, thick book and stick the spine tightly between your legs to simulate sitting on a saddle. Then measure the distance from the bookspine to the floor.

Inseam is 27.5", Height is 62.5". So I guess the ratio is 2.27. I think I have short legs compared to my torso. Not sure what the average is.

Hmm, maybe my height is only 62. That would be a 2.25 ratio.

32 inseam at 74.5 inches tall. Finding shirts that stay tucked in can be a pain in the butt.

72" tall, 32" inseam.  Average length legs, ridiculously long torso.  Makes shopping for everything but pants a real PITA.

I didn't realize that and actually posted twice. Once two years ago.

32" inseam and 70" height.  I'm a female.

Before I discovered pants in long lengths, I looked pretty hot in my high waters


Phew, I thought that I was finding men attractive.

I am 31" / 70"

I love Kohl's Large Tall shirts...great for us long-torsoed freaks.   
btw, 33" inseams suck.  I have to wear 34's because 32's are highwaters (bad), and I can never find 33" inseams anywhere.
