Re: [M2T2] Bike Fit

If you already know it all then why are you asking for someone to fit you? I'd suggest buying the time with a local, the $100 gets you over an hour of time with a level one certified USA cycling coach at Josclyns, there are only seven coaches in the country with certs. like that... not too shabby for a local dread locked bike store guy.
