But aye, there's the rub!
I can't consider myself a competent rider in this regard, which is why I'd like to get some professional input on fitting. It's like learning Yoga - sure, you can do it yourself, but it really helps to learn how to do the poses and transitions from a qualified teacher. After you learn what and how, you can then start applying those skills on your own.
