I'm not sure if I'm reading the tone right here -- but you shouldn't feel guilty about insisting on finding a bike that fits. You aren't "troubling" them -- they are there to help you, and you will be helping to keep them in business in return. When my boyfriend bought a bike a few years ago we must have tested a dozen bikes (between two shops), making many repeat visits over maybe two months. I've been quicker to decide in most cases, but with my commuting bike I probably tested 6-8 between the two shops. It's part of the business, I think.

I wonder, have you had a bike that fits in the past? Is part of the problem that you're not exactly sure what you should be feeling?
