If it's anything like the Serotta TRI fits that I saw while living in Austin I wouldn't get my hopes up. From what I have seen a Serotta TRI fit is the equivalent of a UCI TT fit.... i.e. You aint running after yer done. =) FIST baby. Or.... just get to where your comfy. 36 kona qualifiers 2006-'23 - 3 Kona Podiums - 4 OA IM AG wins - 5 IM AG wins - 18 70.3 AG wins I ka nana no a 'ike -- by observing, one learns | Kulia i ka nu'u -- strive for excellence Garmin Glycogen Use App | Garmin Fat Use App
Originally Mr. Slowtwitch was slated to attend. If he does, hopefully he can cajole the roadies to focus on tri fit a little more. Road fitting is much more "mature" as a "science" than tri fit at this point, I would argue. How many road fitters, for example, do you meet that don't ride road bikes? Almost none? Yet, how many fitters who proclaim to be tri-fitters have never completed a triathlon? I wonder.
Hopefully this symposium cements Boulder's reputation as "Bike Fit Capital of the Universe". Boring finance guy now

I can see the logic around your question but this is more about body mechanics and knowledge rather than the ability to complete a Triathlon - my old rugby coach in UK was in a wheelchair and had been all his life - but the best scrum-half coach in the business.

I would guess 90%. And I don't think it is all about biomechanics etc. I think there is a bit of experience that goes into it. The fact is most fitters don't know much about practical implementation.
Cool. I just had Andy Pruitt resolve a foot pain issue by modifying my shoes; then Todd Carver did a bike fit like I've never seen before, with videotape and infrared sensors tracking my alignment. I am not surprised by their excellent reputation and highly recommend them !
