hrm, so I guess the key thing is for me to get some proper pictures; I will try this tomorrow evening when I can get someone to take them.
about frame size: okay, I was told, by various owners, riders, and other random bike lovers that I needed a 56-60cm frame. I was placed onto various CAAD9's, but the 58cm was what was most commonly recommended; someone once mentioned a 56, but said there was far too much saddle height going on(yay/nay?).
my flexibility is something of mine that has never been put into question, as I can easily place both legs behind my head, kiss my upper thighs when standing straight, and touch the balls of my feet when sitting in the floor. if someone can give me some pointers, I would be quite pleased, though.
my old fit was done by a college friend, who raced as a CAT3, I believe. I was on a 59cm Bianchi C2C Via Nirone 7(2007 model) at the time. He eyed some things and whatnot, and fit me fairly well to it from what his teammates said. but since I transferred out, I've not been able to get in contact with him, but can also not afford a 200$ fit+other possible purchases.
anyways, thanks for the help and I'll try to get some more pics. by the way: the bed is for the XXX throwdowns(that must wait until marriage...argh), the JOOP! cologne was a gift from my girlfriend who loved the stuff when I wore it originally, and she also told me that my hair should not be cut(although I do need to get it trimmed). huzzah!
