You would think but 7-8 years and some 30K of riding plus all the riding when I was younger and none yet, left ankle is very crooked from a break at 14 that wasn't set, knee blew an ACL later from that and actually calms down on the bike when it is hurting.

Micheal Sylvester does fittings here, he was a friend of Merz and went on to design the fit systems and training for Big S, Trek and others.

I think he's a Dr. of some of it now so I may get his take on the whole mess before it goes bad.
