Subject: RE: Getting fitted for a bike There is a lot that goes into being fitted for a bike. Most bike shops will let you find the bike you like and get the size frame that you need then they will fit you to that bike. They don't want to go through a full fitting for each bike. They will set you up close to what they think you need based on their experience and then they will let you decide on which bike you like the best. After you decide on a bike then they will go through the personal fitting for you. As my body continues to change, we are constantly tweeking my bike. The owner of my local bike shop just got back in from WI. where he attended a fitting school. He was already good at fitting, but he is constantly educating himself. Just make sure your bike knows what your intentions are with the bike. I would hope that if it is a reputable shop they want steer you wrong. |
