With that being said, stop worrying about fit even though it looks like you have it pretty much dialed in. Just get out and ride, your comfort will come with time in the saddle..
Indeed I'm done for now. Thanks for the advice on working on core. Are their training routines for that? Books, weblinks etc? I'll browse this forum but a push in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks!
