FRAME SIZE
If you have always
wondered what size frame you are, here is the method the insurance
company used. This will be easier with the help of a friend.
- Extend your arm in
front of your body bending your elbow at a ninety degree angle to
your body. (your arm is parallel to your body).
- Keep your fingers
straight and turn the inside of your wrist to your body.
- Place your thumb
and index finger on the two prominent bones on either side of your
elbow, measure the distance between the bones with a tape measure or
calipers.
- Compare to the
medium-framed chart below. Select your height based on what you are
barefoot. If you are below the listed inches, your frame is small. If
you are above, your frame is large.
