Yep, set up my used Lemond to a close as I could the other bike the day I got it. When they built the new warranty Trek up I had that adjusted off the Schwinn's setup also. Of course this spring sometime I'm going to go to the best fitter I can find in the area and get it done right. Curious to see if the Circuit is even close to what would be considered best.
