FitInspector: Bike Fit by Numbers
A free browser-based bike-fit calculator that turns body measurements and riding preferences into position guidance, confidence scores, and reliability warnings.
Field notes
FitInspector combines required basics—height, inseam, and cycling discipline—with optional measurements and riding preferences. Its explanations name the formulas behind two outputs: saddle height uses inseam × 0.883, while reach uses torso length × 0.48 plus arm length × 0.32. The site distinguishes these calculated starting points from professional fitting, and says photo-based pose detection remains in the browser while only resulting body-position numbers are sent to its server.
