Spencer,
Pay the money. You'll be happier in the long run. I have to agree with Jeff,
you'll never get that level of expertise in trying to fit yourself. I went to
Spokesman in Santa Cruz (only because Joslyns couldn't work with my schedule at
the time). It makes a huge difference when you get your bike dialed in
specificly for you. If you are determined to do it yourself, you can check this
site out (http://www.wobblenaught.com), but for $20 more you can have a pro do
it.

Spencer,
you can go to www.slowtwitch.com <http://www.slowtwitch.com/> and search for
fit. They have a lot of articles on getting a good fit to you new bike. As
long as you have a good seat height and good reach (top tube length close) then
you should be able to fit the bike to you.

Any suggestions?

wheels once a month...
