Perhaps I should have a higher starting rate, reserve the right to charge more if the task takes longer than expected but conversely give a discount if it turns out to be simple and not take much time.
I like this approach, charge the higher starting right with the right to adjust up or down as needed. This sounds like a win-win for both you and your clients, some will certainly require more research/work than others.

If it helps to put it in context, my fitter does "life time fittings". This is tied to the bike and that one time fitting charge of $250 is all that he will ever charge for a separate fitting fee for as long as you own that bike. All else is included, the only possible future costs are for bike parts and labor - this also includes cleat adjustments, etc. Jon is a very talented fitter and while he isn't a PT, he's learned how to think out of the box over the years and help clients with a wide range of physical issues on the bike.
