I had an initial fit with my Tri bike when new 5 years ago. Turns out it wasn't great but I didn't know at the time what a more aero position looked like or really it wasn't something I was thinking about. It wasn't until I learned a bit more and then started getting in over 3+ hour rides for IM training that stuff started hurting on the bike. So at that point I went to a new bike fitter. That bike fitter resolved all of the pain issues I was having. Saddle soreness. hotspots on feet. lower back stiffness. all were fixed. At the time, I was really focused on comfort for the IM leg and was fine with a less aggressive position. So my question is, would it be worth it to have another fitting done with the focus on getting a more aero position? I know my head is a bit too high for sure. I just don't know timewise, how much time I would save in an IM with a more aero position. I'm not shooting for IM podiums but everybody loves to shave off time. any suggestions? and I'm in a new city so I'd be going to a new fitter which is fine as I've seen some recommendations here on ST on where to go.

Update: I had a guru bike fit today which I felt was super helpful. There were obvious things to him which he pointed out before I even got on the bike. Then watching me ride my bike on the trainer it was even more clear to him some things that needed changing. Then went through lots of changes on the guru bike.
Had to leave my bike to have all the adjustments to it made. But feel good about all the changes being made. Can’t wait to get the bike back to take it out for a ride.
