To calculate your bike frame size:
- Measure your inseam (floor to crotch) in centimeters.
- For road bikes: Multiply inseam by 0.67
- For mountain bikes: Multiply inseam by 0.585
- For hybrid/city bikes: Multiply inseam by 0.65
- For gravel bikes: Use the same calculation as road bikes
For a rider who is 5’2″ (157.5 cm), the approximate frame sizes would be:
- Road bike: 48-50 cm
- Mountain bike: 14-15″
- Hybrid/City bike: 15″
- Gravel bike: 48-50 cm
Remember that these are general guidelines. Factors like arm length, torso length, and personal preference can affect the ideal bike size. It’s always best to test ride a bike before purchasing, if possible.
