Bicycle fitting advice for Indy area
Looking to buy a 2013 supersix evo with electronic shifting and need some advice. I've currently got an entry level road bike and I'm finally looking to upgrade after several years. I want a professional fit done by either Nebo Ridge staff or BGI. What's my better option? Nebo ridge has free adjustments for life but I feel BGI has more of a professional type fitting program. What do?!

What do you mean by "BGI has more of a professional type fitting program"? They have a computer based system, but the expertise of the fitter is critical. Not to bad mouth BGI, I've shopped there many times, but they are definitely the high volume mass retailer of the Indy bike shops. Nebo Ridge doesn't sell nearly as many bikes but from the cyclists I know, is without question considered as the shop with the most in-dept expertise.
But that's all subjective, word of mouth input. So take it for what it's worth. I am in the same boat as you, upgrading to a newer and better road bike. When I get a fitting, it will definitely be at Nebo Ridge, not BGI.
