I'd love some recommendations for good shops - actually, specific people at shops - to help fit my new bike ('05 roubaix, bought used on ebay). montlake bike shop is very convenient for me (2 blocks from my house), but i'd go anywhere within city limits if that would help get the best fit...

TIA

The guy to go to is Erik Moen--physical therapist and cyclist in Bothell, I think. I haven't seen him yet but hope to get around to it eventually.

I can't remember his name off hand but I believe they only have one premier fitter at Greenlake. I believe he raced in Europe .... does a great job. he spent about 30 minutes on shoe fit then another hour on bike fit and dialing everything in just so

Russell at Herriott Sports Performance did the fitting for my mountain bike. He's got an inredible depth of knowledge and experience with positioning and training.

I went to see Zac at Cascade Bicycle Studio on Monday to get measured up for a custom bike I'm getting. He's great and will set you up just right. He's fitted thousands of people and asks all the right questions.

I simply cannot recommend either one of these guys enough. You cannot go wrong either way.

I just got fitted there and those guys are pros. It's too early to say I'm winning more already, but the experience, and the fee, was well worth it.

I had a fit done by Erik last year. He is a physical therapist that focuses bike fit, etc. Here is his website (http://www.bikept.com).

This is a couple weeks old, but Matt Hill, who works through (but not for) Greggs Greenlake shop is great. I paid him for an hour, but I think we were in that little room for about two and a half. He also trains people who want to race, and if you have seen him race, the man knows his stuff................MTT :thumbsup:
