Any recommendations for a bike fitter in Houston? I have fairly large herniated discs in my lower back that were asymptomatic the last 5 years. I've had a flare up that I attribute largely to poor bike fit -- my doing. I'm at a point where I'm ready to pay for a good fit that can take my back problems into account. I appreciate the help!

Thanks,

Scott

Hows it going man, sprints are all around Houston, cant get off to have fun with one.

Anyway bro I am sure a good number of the whole of Houston would recommend Tad Hughes he is a great guy

http://tadhughescustom.com/

It is really worth it to be fitted with him , his fitting improved all of those i knew he fitted. Tad Hughes is not connected to any bicycle shop therefore he is not biased to a specific brand. He can fit any bike you have with the your right size.

Good luck and Cheers man

I'd pretty much only let three people fit me in Houston.  In no particular order:

Tad Hughes

Cynthia Stewart with Bike Barn Fit Studio

Philip Shama with Shama Cycles

Another vote for Tad. He did my fit.

Also, my buddy went to Shama, and was equally happy.

Another vote for Tad Hughes Custom Fit. Took all the time he needed and really helped get me dialed in.

I am in the market for a new road bike, at several local bike stores I will test ride several bikes. Other than basic fit and components, how should I compare them while doing a test ride?

I can run and swim with no problems but when I get on the bike my hamstring starts to tighten up. I had my bike fitted in January and the problem seemed fine until I got out on the roads recently.
