From the photo in your last post, I would tilt the handlebars back a few degrees. I honestly don't think the tops of the bars are level, and that is accentuating what I think is a very slight stretch to reach the hoods.

I am truly interested in hearing what the fitter(s) has(ve) to say, and what the outcome is.

I might also add that if your seat has been dropped like you say, then I hate to think how straight your legs were at the bottom of the pedal stroke, how your hips probably rocked, and how you were lining up for rear-of-knee and achilles issues. For mine, I think the seat might still be too high.

What size cranks are you using and were they ever discussed between you and the fitter?
