WHo is a good bike fitter in the Ft Worth Tx area?
I need to get my wife fitted pretty bad. Hopefully before the weekend or on Saturday. I already tried Performance Bike, as you can tell it did no good. She isnt comfortable at all. I was going to just buy another saddle, but was told she might need another fitting on the bike. Thanks for any help.

Colonel's on University is the shop I prefer: https://www.colonelsbikes.com/. Right across from TCU. For fitting, I would say talk to Rick (I'm pretty sure that's his name).
I know people who use Bicycle's Inc and are happy: https://bicyclesinc.com/ . They are at Granbury and 20.
There's one on Cherry between Camp Bowie and 30 -- Fort Worth Cycle Sport maybe? I see a lot of bike sourced from there, but know little about it. Ah, here it is: https://fwcycling.com/ .
That should get you started. My favorite is Colonel's but I also happen to work across the street from it.

My friend's cousin Ruben invited us to a group ride there and we had a really good time and a good workout! They certainly are really cool and I'd trust them fully.
you may also want to post your question in the Texas forum in the Regional Section.

Bike's inc, is ass, IMO. Slow, unorganized, and the wrench in the Arlington location is a pothead. They were a week shipping a bike I'd already packed up nearly 100% myself, and the last time I let them do maintenance on my rear derailleur, they didn't set the stops right and I ended up getting my chain wraped around my rear wheel. I guess I should thank them for forcing me to do my own maintenance now.
Though B&B sounds great - I'll have to check them out very soon.
