How to measure my inseam for a bike

Your inseam can help you find the perfect sized bike (measuring it properly is similar to pant inseams but measured a little differently). Here's how they work:

Stand upright with your feet 6-8" apart.
Using a tape measure or tailor tape, measure from the bottom of your foot to the top of the inside of your leg.
Compare your inseam measurement to the standover height of the bike. You should have about an inch of space between your body and the top tube.

Nice bike
It gets the job done. If it’s your first bike it’s great. If you’re an avid biker I wouldn’t suggest this bike. The parts are a bit flimsy and really aren’t meant for constant commuter use. My bike broke within the first 3 weeks of me having it. My local bike shop was able to fix it and Retrospec sent me the part that needed replacing which was great. But ultimately, I just wouldn’t suggest this for constant commuter use. I’d recommend going to your local bike shop. That way you can see the bike in person, feel the parts and know if it would hold for what you’re needing. If you want a casual bike to ride from time to time. Then this one is great for that!

Well made
This is my fourth Retrospec bike (two were stolen with locks attached in Hollywood Florida). Easy to assemble. I have found that bikes delivered for assembly will sometimes have wheels that need to be "trued" to stop the misalignment of brakes. This is not the case with Retrospec bikes. This Kinney bike went together easily (finished in thirty minutes) and gear transitions and brakes work very well.

Far exceeded my expectations
I’ve had my Kinney for two weeks now and I can’t believe how much I like it. Very light and rides so well. And it took me only 15 minutes to put it together. What a great value
