This works. The Velo 7 wants centimeters though so if your measurement is in inches, divide by .3937 and enter that number. As an alternative, with your tires inflated to their 'normal' pressure, measure from the pavement to the center of the hub/wheel of the front, driver's side. Then double that number & multiply by pi (3.1417). As above, if your measurement is in centimeters, enter that number. If it's inches, divide by .3937.
