Has she been trained in bike fit? Did she see you on the bike on a stand? Does she have any idea of the myriad of ways to adjust a bike to make it fit, and ways to adjust the fit while dealing with frozen shoulder or posture cues for riding to avoid impingement? Just telling someone to get rid of their brand new road bike without a very specific reason (like, this frame is too big for you, go trade it in for the same road bike only smaller) shows a lack of training in my book.Originally Posted by Little Lyon
She actually told me to get rid of my road bike
Your issues are TEMPORARY, and I'm appalled that she'd tell you to get rid of your bike!
If you tell us the general area where you live, I'm sure there are several TE'ers who can jump in with suggestions for PTs who do bike fit or shops that do a good body-oriented bike fit.
