The Bad Angles

Well it looks like I got some work to do to conform to F.I.S.T.!

It look like I need to lower the seat some. I knew it was a little high . . . Anybody got a hacksaw? . . . Crap! This should turn that 92 into the 95-105 I'm looking for. Now to deal with that 85. I'm gripping the curve of the extension instead of the end of the extension. But when I achieve this 90, it doesn't place my shoulder above my elbows. I still need to rotate by lowering the bars some, but I can't because the stem is as far down as I can get it . . . well sand it. As for the 117 it's just a matter of rotation, and also remember I'm gripping the curve of the extension and not the ends.

Are you sure you are measuring the head of the femur and acromion?

It looks like you might be a little off!
