Not sure about online fitting but when I had mine the fitting has been done taking into account the pedals, the cleats and the shoes I decided to go for and I'm talking about my daily bike. I just take shoes replacement with me. A good fit will look at the angle of your leg plus other indicator and derive the length from there.

@.gaz.
Has anyone talked about how different pedal systems effect bike fit?
I've been trying to do some online fittings (on the off-chance it helps my fucked ITBs) and none of them seem to take into account pedal system height: I just (roughly) measured the overall 'stack-height' of my keos (contact point > spindle center + cleat + sole + insoles, etc) and it's 45mm.
The 'stack height' of my daily bike is approx 30mm less with platform pedals and trainers, which is obviously going to make a huge difference in terms of fit.
Do I need to add 45mm to what they recommend, or have they somehow guessed a figure and included it in their calculations?
