Bike Sizing Form
Bike Sizing Helpful Information
It is important to make sure you have the optimum sized bike for you. If you are not sure which size you need then please contact us and we can help advise you. We have created a form for you to fill in so that we can interpret your measurements and help you make the right decision. The data that you submit in this form will be used to make sure we provide you with the correct size bike for you and may be used to improve our products. We keep this data in email form and if you would like it to be deleted please contact us james@vaarucycles.com.
Please repeat all measurements 3 times to get a consistent and accurate dimension, if they differ, take an average. Please get someone else to take the measurements to achieve accuracy.
