Using The golden ratio approx 1.618033988749894848204586834. How would you calculate the appropriate size of say a bicycle in relation to the height of a person?

A:

I would ignore 1.618033988749894848204586834 and try riding bikes of different sizes. Also I'd ask some friends of different sizes to ride bkes of different sizes and see if there seemed to be an optimum bike size/person size ratio for maximum satisfaction.
