should have done it long time ago...
I always wanted to do this but never got to it. Measure my bike, in case I need to re do the setup.
I am traveling out of the country in 10 days and I will be riding while I'm away, but not on my bike. The challenge would be to get a borrowed or rented bike to fit as close as possible to my own bike.
I took those measurements, which I believe will be enough to copy the my own setup.
measurements of my bike
did I miss anything?

1. I drop a plumb bob from the nose of the saddle then measure the horizontal distance from the plumb bob to the crank spindle.
2. I measure the vertical distance from the saddle and from the handlebar tops to the floor. The difference between the two is what I'm really interested in.
