Minor thread hijack....
I hear what you are saying about the "improper fit" issue. But I have a serious question here. What do bent riders say when they experience pain? Is it a fit issue, an issue of improper clothing, or something else? And, don't say bent riders don't feel pain. I know of two who will no longer ride more than two hours at a time, because of pain. Yet, they are very reluctant to discuss where the pain is or what causes it.
