what if all the lbs that you go to take one look at you, and decide you can't be serious because your not a trim little thing. i found out yesterday that the one place i really liked lied about not having a fitting machine. i was told that i should just hop on a bike and find my fit that way. i was planning to spend 2k on a really nice first real bike for myself, but i don't want to spend my cash, which took me a very long time to save up, on a place that would treat it's potential customers that way. another i visited offered to fit me for a price, but discouraged my doing it because if i bought the bike, then they would fit me for free. i don't want to buy something that only might work. the last was staffed by a nervous young college guy how didn't quite know what to do with me. am i really going to have to go out of town? this can't be typical.
