Yeah, my sentiments exactly on the fit. I've talked to few of the local LBS guys who do fittings and I'm not excited. They get a glazed over look when I let them know that my lower leg is short on one side and my femur is short on the other. It creates a challenge that I'm just not sure they (the standard guys) are up to. I don't race but I do love my current road bike and just want to get everything out of her (and myself) I can. I've done a lot of fit for myself that has really added to my overall enjoyment.
Looking at my xrays, there is no arthritis in any joints and I'd like to keep it that way. Since the car that hit me and the surgeons have messed with so many of my nerves, the feedback I'm getting may not be indicative of what's really happening. So, I am at the point where I just want someone with a trained eye to watch me ride, check out the rotation path of each leg, measure me up (and down) and see what needs to be tweeked. I think I've done pretty well up to this point. I feel very balanced now, no saddle problems, alleviated the shoulder issues... just need to work on my core strength more for those long rides. I've really neglected my abs this year.![]()
Thanks ladies for the feedback.![]()
