General Fit Tip: A well-fitting frame is the foundation of a comfortable ride. Adjustments to the saddle height, stem length, and handlebar angle can fine-tune the fit, but they cannot compensate for a frame that is fundamentally the wrong size.
What to Do if You Are Between BMC Sizes?
It is incredibly common to find your exact height overlapping between two different BMC URS AL (Aluminium) frame dimensions. When this happens, your riding style and physical proportions should dictate your choice:
Choosing the smaller option gives you a shorter reach to the handlebars, creating a more upright riding position. Opting for the larger frame extends the wheelbase, delivering a highly stable ride at high speeds.
How to Measure Your Height for an Accurate Fit
Don’t guess your height when investing in a new bike. For the most accurate measurement, take off your shoes and stand with your back entirely flat against a wall. Look straight ahead, place a book flat on top of your head, mark the wall, and measure the distance to the floor. Use a flat-edged object or book resting horizontally on your head to mark the point accurately against the wall before running a tape measure to the floor.
