Kalidurga, how much did this certified fitting cost? I am looking to purchase a new bike by the end of the year, and a thorough fitting would be nice to accompany my new ride.

The shop I went to charges $150 for the fitting and $35 for cleat adjustments. Then I also paid for the new saddle, the steerer extender, and the labor to install that, so you'd have to factor potential changes to your bike into the cost. Depending on how many shops in your area offer Serotta-certified fittings, hopefully you would be able to shop around a bit. Personally, I think it's definitely worth driving a bit out of the area if necessary.

Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
