What a difference a real fitting makes...

Hey silly question.. do you have to have a Serotta bike to get a Serotta fitting? I mean do they "poo-poo" you for not buying Serotta or anything? Or is the fitting specific to something Serotta?

Not at all. I don't have a Serotta. Whatever they think about your non-Serotta bike, they generally keep to themselves.

You don't even have to buy a bike. You can make an appointment to simply get fit to your current bike. I had a road bike fitting a year and a half ago- they changed the stem (made the reach much closer) and the seatpost (straight post instead of set-back- again to shorten the reach). It made a tremendous difference. They'll figure out what the ideal position is for you - and then advise adjustments to your current bike to do the best to re-position you. (And of course the numbers are there if you want to purchase a bike too.)
