Hey Scrod:

Newb here. I currently have a 2009 Specialized Langster NYC Edition with a frame that's too big for me. I'd like to move to a Leader 725 frame, and just move all my components over for now, then piecemeal replace them as I go forward.

How important is going to a bike shop to get an actual fit done before buying the frame - or can I just use the Competitive Cyclist fit calculator to get a "close enough" fit, then get the actual fit done when I get my components on the frame?

(Fit calculator puts me in a 51 Leader 725, while my Langster is a 56.)
