    SLash,
    it sounds like you are really getting a feel for dialing in the details of fit and comfort tailored to YOU and YOUR body. We are all built differently and our bikes are different too.
    Unless you are truly uncomfortable, I'd suggest now that you ride for a while without changing anything. From my own experiences I found that letting myself ride for a good long while a certain way allowed me to more clearly sense what little thing(s) might need changing. If I changed and tweaked often, it was much harder to tell when something was improved or not. If there is pain of course, that requires more immediate attention.

    Great that you are happy with the changes you made so far...and congratulations on having a beautiful new Jamis!

    Lisa, this is excellent advice and I'll follow it. I'm glad you suggested it. I know my fit if not there, is damn close and I could easily make it worse by tweaking and re-tweaking.

    Thanks!
