New bike fit concern

[Eden]

Most people you can fit 2 sizes.

I'd change that a bit - most people can *ride* more than one size... fit is a different matter. I rode a bike too big for much of my adult life. I did weeks long tours and century rides on it. I could most certainly ride it - but it did not fit properly, but until I had something that fit properly I never even knew that it wasn't perfect.

Do we get a bit hung up about it here - probably. A lot of people, I'm sure, can have an imperfectly fitting bike and be fine with that forever. For a lot of types of riding you don't really and truly need a fit like a glove to be happy and to not hurt, but then again there may be people out there who never fall in love with it the way they might if they did have a bike that fit like a glove.
