Hello all! Can anyone recommend a good fitter in Northern NJ or NYC area? I just started cycling about a month ago and I am totally addicted!! I've been racking up the miles and starting commuting to work (NJ to the big apple ~ 34miles roundtrip).
A little background... I bought a road bike from my LBS and they didn't do much as far as fitting (just saddle height adjustment). I honestly don't trust the fit. Lately, my knees have been sore and sometimes get numb feet while riding. Often times the numb feet lasts less than a minute and goes away. The sore knees is felt the day after the ride. Not sure if this is a result from all the miles that I've been doing. I want to be proactive and get a good fit before I injure myself in the long run.
Thanks in advance!!!
