Determining your frame size can be estimated using a simple wrist measurement technique.
Here's a method to get a rough idea of your frame size, based on the reference:
Wrist Measurement Technique
- Locate the Measurement Point: Find the area on your wrist where you would typically wear a wristwatch.
- Wrap Thumb and Index Finger: Wrap your thumb and index finger around your wrist at this point.
- Assess the Gap:
- Small Frame: If your thumb and index finger overlap, you likely have a small frame.
- Medium Frame: If your thumb and index finger touch without overlapping, you probably have a medium frame.
Understanding Frame Size
It's important to note that this is just a rough estimate. True frame size is also related to other skeletal dimensions and isn't solely based on wrist circumference. However, this simple method offers a quick and easy way to get a general idea.
| Result of Thumb and Finger Test | Likely Frame Size |
|---|---|
| Fingers Overlap | Small |
| Fingers Touch | Medium |
Example: If, when you wrap your fingers around your wrist, they overlap, your frame size is estimated to be small using this method.
This method, according to the 2013 reference, provides a quick way to get a general sense of frame size.
