Start measuring - with the SQlab at Home-Measurement-Set

Most riders don’t question their setup. The saddle feels fine, the grips seem okay, everything seems to fit.

Pressure builds up over time. Positions shift. Small compensations become part of every ride. Not because something is “wrong” but because the setup was never truly matched to the rider.

Three contact points

That define your position

Saddle, grips and pedals determine how pressure is distributed and how your input reaches the bike. Even small mismatches at these contact points become noticeable over time, especially on longer rides.

Most decisions are based on assumptions

Standard sizes, general recommendations, or what feels right at first touch. But initial comfort can be misleading.

A saddle that feels soft doesn’t necessarily support where it should.
A grip that feels small can increase pressure instead of distributing it.
At the pedals, an unsuitable axle length can affect how naturally your legs are aligned during pedaling.

Instead of guessing, there’s a more precise starting point: understanding your own anatomy.

A more precise starting point

Your anatomy

This is where the SQlab at-home measurement set comes in. It allows you to determine key dimensions at your contact points. This forms the basis for selecting the right saddle width, grip size and insoles.

Developed to be used at home, the set guides you through the process step by step, making it easy to measure what actually matters — before choosing your setup.

Your sit bones

the primary contact point on the saddle

They determine where your weight is supported while riding.

If the saddle is too narrow, pressure shifts away from the sit bones.
If it is too wide, it can interfere with your pedaling movement.

Measuring your sit bone width provides a clear starting point for choosing the right saddle width. It ensures that your weight is supported where it is intended — on the sit bones.

With the SQlab measurement set, you create a simple imprint at home and determine the distance between your sit bones. Based on this measurement and your riding position, the appropriate saddle width can be derived.

How to measure your sit bone width at home

Step by step

Place the measuring cardboard on a hard surface.
Sit down upright and press your sit bones firmly into the material.
Mark the center of both imprints and measure the distance between them.
Based on this measurement and your riding position, the appropriate saddle width can be derived.

Beyond the saddle

The set also helps to determine the hand size

SQlab grips are available in different sizes to match your hand.

This allows the contact area to be used effectively, distributing the load across the palm instead of concentrating it in specific areas.

Measuring your hand size provides the basis for selecting the appropriate grip size.

Fit continues at the foot
Find the right insole

The set also helps you determine your foot type to find the right insole. Depending on your foot structure, the foot can lose stability under load, especially during longer rides.

SQlab insoles support the foot where needed, creating a more defined connection inside the shoe and reducing unwanted movement. This provides a stable base for pedaling.
