I've been contemplating a fitting there (actually a fitting anywhere..) I've DIY'd it for years and wonder what they can do for me.
Now that I'm too tight to pay UK RRP prices for roadie kit and buy stuff off ebay, etc. I've done myself a disservice with the Ribble fit (the old: read wrong column, toptube too long problem).
How do you rate their fitting?
Are you actually comfortable over long distance stuff?
Any racers out there feel more powerful, better handling?
Do they provide a full set of measurements that could be used to 1) tweak existing bike 2) tweak new off the shelf bike 3) build full custom frame?
Do they do the hard-sell like Kennedy in Melbourne and push their own bikes/components at you?
