I want to start off by first noting just how rare it is that I write an entire post specifically about a single app. I could probably count the number of times I’ve done that in 6 years on one hand. I simply find that most of the good apps out there are already known, and most of the others tend to suck be less awesome. Nonetheless, I get bombarded with devs wanting me to post about their apps.

Many of them believing that a 99 cent redeemable app code will entice me (C’mon, I buy $400 watches to support readers in reviews, I think I can afford 99 cents! Marathi Movie 2010 Downloads. ). So, this afternoon while reading through e-mail I saw another app, and almost tossed it into the bin of things I won’t be reviewing.

But after poking around the link I was actually surprised – it claimed to do something I hadn’t seen before: Real-time analysis of your bike fit – including angles and distances. So, I re-arranged my entire living room to try it out. Why did I have to do that you ask?

Well, it turns out that in order to get far enough away from my bike to get the full view I had to go about 10 feet away. Or, approximately 1 foot from the wall. In fact, the camera taking this photo was literally up against the wall shooting somewhat blindly. Next, after getting my phone in the right position I cracked open the app and got the wheels lined up using the red circles. It wasn’t quite an exactly perfect fit, but I made it work as best as possible. (Update: A few people have asked how I attached the iPhone to the tripod.

This is moderately brilliant because it means you can actually see what’s being moved – as opposed to having said spot be directly under your finger.

I also zoom in and modify things: Within the video, I can easily move it frame by frame using the dial on the left hand side – like a scrolling wheel. Again, this works exceptionally well and is a thousand times better than trying to play ‘drag a dot’ on a line.
