  • I think it would have served him well anyway however, of course the money spent would have been a regret.

  • Be patient. I was so focused on getting a custom frame when I started riding. I was riding with a 50mm stem and the bike felt so wrong and long. Same bike, now 3 years later and I've got a 100mm stem on it and it feels amazing even on long rides. Easily my most fun bike.
    All because I started stretching and sorting out my posture on the bike.
    Not saying we are similar. Just saying try to adjust to this bike or size down for the interim until you've put some more miles down.

    Would I get a custom frame? Sure as shit I would and I'm considering what I want now, but would I get the same one I was considering 3 years ago? Not in the slightest.

  • I am patient... not :P

    Which is what I'm trying to do getting the shorter stem, that's what the bike fitting suggested in order to start working in the right direction for my personal development. I'm not getting just to try :)
