I figure if the new setup sucks I'll go back to how it was since it's been working comfort wise. I'll have to take some before and after like you did to see the difference! The only shots I have are from the photogs at the races...RFalkenrathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15092682535064605686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29677084.post-4368556838833119022010-06-24T14:35:22.217-05:002010-06-24T14:35:22.217-05:00Kevin in the BEST!

Not sure how that happened but I'm so happy with my new fitting. He did hook me up to the retul stuff but he had me totally dialed in already. The retul just confirmed how amazing he is!Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06081641803045845315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29677084.post-32537314606824361172010-06-24T08:27:54.537-05:002010-06-24T08:27:54.537-05:00Sounds like you got a great fit, hope you are tons...Sounds like you got a great fit, hope you are tons faster!IronHoosierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14364497058469831343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29677084.post-25332677898917408352010-06-23T19:06:21.633-05:002010-06-23T19:06:21.633-05:00Dude.

You're living on the edge getting a bike fit the day before a race!<br /><br />But I'm glad it worked out so well and nice work!<br /><br />I may have to do that if I want to do many more multisport events. The outside of my locked foot was numb by the end of the bike portion of my last duathlon and it took a bit of the run for it to wake back up.<br /><br />Must be a pedal/shoe issue.<br /><br />Bike Fit coming soon...FinnyKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813175777047535103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29677084.post-67495809216999287602010-06-23T12:58:19.383-05:002010-06-23T12:58:19.383-05:00Kevin refit my Cervelo and Trek this spring after ...Kevin refit my Cervelo and Trek this spring after I'd had an Orthopedic injury at the end of last summer. He did a great job getting me more comfortable in the cockpit.

I mean... what if I grew or something?! ;) <br /><br />Maybe I should get a new bike first. Hahha my answers to those three questions are basically the same as yours.

I have the Specialized Romin SL saddle, which is shaped differently primarily for sprinting. All depends on how and what you are riding.Alex Chiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05996653042969735830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29677084.post-25005502868978522452010-06-23T07:10:59.735-05:002010-06-23T07:10:59.735-05:00They do a great job at GW.

I could tell the difference before your awesome GIF image overlay (which was pretty cool too). <br /><br />That is a serious adjustment the day before your TRI haha. Only you could pull that off.<br /><br />I am debating getting aerobars on my road bike for the half IM we are doing.
