262/365 - Getting Fit

Lori got a new bike for her birthday. It will be a custom built Guru bike built for iron-distance triathlons. Today Colin at Studio Velo did the geometry/fit check on Guru’s size specification.

When we ordered the bike Colin took a few measurements and sent them w/ the order to Guru. They produce a preliminary design based on the measurements and the intended purpose of the bike. Colin set up the fit bike w/ these dimensions and then tweaked it just a little.

Next up: A bike frame. Oh yeah, and there are components to select… Fun stuff!
