Fit at Austin Tri Cyclist?

Triathlon Forum
1

I live in Houston and am self fit using info from this forum, Dan’s pages, articles from Cobb, etc. Also, I’m on a cheap Trek road bike that I have converted for tri. A new bike is not in the picture until at least fall.

I’ll be traveling to Austin in 2 weeks and had 2 questions.

First, do you think it would do me any good to get a professional fitting? I don’t relish throwing away a couple hundred $ and time to get a fitting from someone who knows less than I do. I have no experience with a good LBS so I’m pretty wary of them all.

Second, does anyone have any experience with Austin Tri Cyclist? Do they know how to fit someone correctly? For that matter, since I live in Houston does anyone have any recommendations on where to go to get a really good fit?

Tom;
I live in Houston and concur about Jeff at Bikesport. Also I have used a guy named Bruce Gilbert who is passionate about bike fit and is located in Houston as well. The folks at at Austin are first class folks but there are some good resources in Houston. Email me if you need more info

Good Luck

OK, so can anyone else give me suggestions on getting a bike fit in Houston? Can anyone else recommend Bike Sport or these other two guys?

Thanks
