I've never had a pro fitting--I just bought my first road bike a few months ago--a Specialized Allez Comp which I suppose is considered "entry level". When I bought it I test road a few and the LBS helped me pick one. Then he checked me out as I sat on it, for my saddle adjustment, and flipped the stem (at my request--having only been riding a VERY vertical hybrid/comfort bike until then I thought it made sense to ease into it). Briefly looked at me sitting on the bike and thought it all looked good. I've been riding it for a few months now and feel very comfortable, no issues at all. Given it "feels" fine to me, would it still behoove me to get a pro fit? (BTW, I ride for fitness and fun, about 60 miles a week right now, and I use platform pedals, not clipless).
