Hey, so to answer some q's...
The RAL was wrong, it's even on the build sheet and they still messed up. The geo is indeed the same as on the build sheet so I guess I do have the right bike even though it's not quite right!
CR did ask what kind of riding I was wanting to do and I said up to 100miles/day max so he apparently planned it along those lines..
DJ: you're right with all you've said. Scherrit basically said the same, that static measures are only good upto a very certain point but actual riding position and contact points have to be set up on a jig to be accurate.. I feel pretty scammed that he didn't do it!!
Ed: true what you said but for now I'm going to stick with Scherrit and see what we can work out together. If it all fails I'm going to badger CR as it's taking the piss.
I get the feeling (as DJ said) that he just flew through the fit and didn't give it the time and proper sizing it required.. Starting to run out of patience with it to be quite honest after 4 months and looking forward to my Gangsta coming back which I really shouldn't be saying but unfortunately true.. Oh well, onwards and upwards!
