heather replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"Tim, thanks. My injuries from my crash 6 months ago are physio after a broken shoulder, and whatever happened to my back & neck to create the headaches."
Tim B replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"Apologies to Stephen for hijacking his thread.... :)
Heather, i got to the point with my last road bike that I thought I would only be able to ride MTB, Hybrid or go down the custom build route if in fact any of those helped. Fortunately these days…"
Blake replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"Heather, someone else posted a link to Steve Hogg. I have read a lot of his articles on bike fit and he seems to know what he is talking about and also doesn't follow a lot of the old wives tales on the subject, as an example about having the…"

When cars hit trees, not all occupants survive, but with the constant reminder you may not consider yourself lucky. I have permanent neck and back injuries due to negligent drivers. More than a…"
Blake replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"Tim, I have found the guys at BMCR very good at listening and really trying to find solutions. I have been having issues with things and they have been the only ones to actually listen, not just sell me something or try to get me to upgrade.

I'll call a couple of the suggested people and see if I can book something over the next week."
Dahondude replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"Mike I get annoyed by people who don't answer the question being asked but just randomly throw in their opinions. Stephen asked a specific question - recommendations for a professional bike fitter. All three responses provided random bike…"
Matt "Boz" replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"lacate him? lol thought only women could do this .... :-)"
Shav Bird replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"well said. A one size fits all is not the answer. Sometimes it takes a number of attempts to get a fit that you are happy with.
That said, I was pretty happy with Noel at The Bike Station. Over all he spent about an hour or so in total, and…"
Blake replied to Stephen K's discussion Bike Fitting"big +1 to this!
