There seems to be kind of a cutoff at 48% because when I wear long pants and walk on my toes (+7-8CM) My proportions look surprisingly good, but when I add shoes to that I start to look pretty awkward.

48% is the upper bound of the normal range, but 49% should be the absolute cutoff IMO. If I decide to do CLL, I will not go passed 180CM, as that will keep me just under 49%

 After 7cm's my ratio would be 46,2% so my inseam to height would be 86 to 186 in cm.
I guess I could go to 186 without having weird proportions, my wingspan to height ratio would be -3 then. How far can you go above the wingspan in terms oft height?

No consensus about wingspan, mine is naturally 4CM shorter than my height.

You are good with wingspan dude. After -1 inch ape index is where you may run into problems, but I doubt you want to lengthen over 11CM.

Based on your current inseam/height and wingspan, I can't think of a better candidate for CLL, as you will look more proportional after. MDOW has an insane 42% inseam/height before lengthening, so he was also a great candidate

Still, I don't think people are measuring true (cycling) inseam correctly, as it seems unlikely that nearly every respondant has a 45% or less inseam/height.

Hi,

My inseam: 82cm
Height : 170.5cm
Sitting height: 88cm
Wing span: 182cm (I have broad shoulders)

My inseam to height ratio is 48%. I just want to do 4cm which will put me to 49.2%. would I look odd with proportions at 49.2%?  I wear 3cm heel and perfectly look normal.

Am I measuring my inseam correctly? I measured exactly as mentioned here. It seams my inseam and sitting height make up my total height( 82+88=170)?

I have a 27 inch inseam and I'm 67 inches tall. That's a ratio of about 40%.

The height from the floor to the bottom of my balls is about 46,5% of my height. Is that considered long-legged?

Inactive post, but by having a book properly up to a wall while holding the book with an arm, I got a ratio of about 47,5 %. No wonder my legs look proportionally quite long.
