That' s Christian Vandevelde 4th in the tour (well fifth, but one guy got busted for doping) getting a Retul fit. When your done you get a fit sheet of all your bikes measurements.

Retul Thy Self
After receiving what I now refer to as my bionic knee, I thought it would be a good idea to get a fancy professional bike fit. Luckily I'm sponsored by Retul Fittng Systems www.retul.com. Well by sponsored I mean I know one of the owners and he fits me for free. This is not me but, here is the jist of things, they stick reflectors on you and the systems captures your motion. The fitter then analyzes and adjusts your position to fall within bio-mechanical norms, and the comfort of the rider. I'm sure the gravitational pull of the earth, and the volume of residual Cheeto dust remaining on your fingertips is also factored in.
