How do I know the bike is a good fit...

Hi guys..
Been reading a few posts regarding bike sizing, one question I have is that how do I know that my bike fits me properly..?

I purchased my bike - an Orbea Sate (yes, I know not very popular, but it was cheap, and has so far served me well)

I sized it based using an online guide measuring my height, in-seam etc.. and so far the bike seems fits really well.

What are some of the indicators that a bike doesn't fit?

Well one way is if the seat post goes all the way down and you still can't reach the ground or pedals then it's too big for you, if it goes up to it's maximum recommended height and you have a lot of bend in your legs then it's probably to small. This is only if the bike is insanely too small/ large for you.
