This was the reason for the fitting. In addition, the frame was purchased sight-unseen and the bike was a build project. I'm going back for a free review after 1500 miles on the bike. I have no regrets paying trained & experienced people to do their job. It beats the usual bike-shop retail experience without a doubt. Considering that I ride 500 miles a month, about 110 hours worth, It's been worth it.
