Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I am thinking of getting one, the price isnt bad and it is compared to the Spec BG fit. I want to get prof fitted and be done with it, especially I am picking up a new frame in the near future.

Thanks

The fitter is more important than the system.

I had one done at my lbs. Some minor adjustments from the original bike fit and over 10,000 miles and I have had no problems. Kinda nice to go in and change a seat and use the wand and previous measurements to get an exact measurement. Over all a positive experience that I can take the general measurements to apply to future bike purchases IMHO

Bingo. Find someone you trust, that understands physiology (and isn't just a button pusher) and knows how to fit you based on your goals (which means they should ask). GL
