Thought I would try this again.
I’m new to cycling and really need someone who is good at fitting clydesdales. I live in Houston so I will travel to Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and even some parts of Louisiana.
I really wanted to buy a bike from John Cobb in Tyler but I understand Bicycle Sports is closed for good.
Thanks for the help.
I don’t have specific fit experience with him, but Matt Chauvin (tricoachusa@aol.com) has worked with John Cobb in the past and from what I know about Matt, I would go to him for a fitting. He is in League City so there shouldn’t be a travel problem other than the horrible I 45 traffic.

Call Dan at Pro Cycles on Shepherd, 713-524-4847. I’ve been told he’s the second-best bike fitter in the region. Supposedly the best is in Shreveport, LA. If you really want to drive all the way to Shreveport, I can get more details.
If you go see Dan, be prepared to spend a few hours there. He really takes his time to get it right. And don’t be deterred by the mess. He knows his stuff.
I heard that all Bicycle Sports locations closed but Tyler. I’ve received somewhat recent sale flyer emails from Bicycle Sports, and their website is still up.
Is there any more recent news about a change? If not, maybe the Tyler location is still open. If so, you could check with Dave Bunce. He’d take great care of getting you fitted, and he’s the Tyler store manager.
