  • I'm not really into this bike fitting stuff.

    Scenario 1: you're a newb; seems like a good idea when shelling out for a bike; you don't know any different; within a year of riding more, everything has changed.

    Scenario 2: you're experienced; looking for any performance/comfort improvement; you pay X so you believe philosophy X; within a year, your body has changed.

    Scenario 3: the weather fluctuates, the amount of time you spend on a bike fluctuates, your body fluctuates, your fit fluctuates.

    Scenario 4: free info everywhere; concentrate on form; listen to body; save money.

    Meh.

    Does happen, a fair bit I understand.

    I've had 2 fittings, spaced 2 years apart. My fit had changed by 2mm on the handlebar height... a number so small I'd actually put it down to being just how I felt on the day.

    It's nice, to have several fittings over a long time and have the numbers basically validate the prior fit and continue to give confidence that the custom frame continues to fit you fine.

    Not saying this happens for everyone. People compensate, grow, shrink, have accidents... but when it works it's lovely jubbly.
