I'm still a bit confused by this discussion. I think I "get it" for the measurement of the chainstay to the point in the dropout where the seat and chainstay centerline meets. But, where to measure at the bb? I read one account that says to measure to the center of the bb shell (crank). I have also measured to the edge of the rear round edge of the bb shell, not the center.
