  1. Does anyone have suggestions on who to go to in the Los Angeles area to get a good fitting for a
    triathlon bike?

    As a minimum wage-earning student I'm looking at low budget tri bicycles or maybe converted road
    cycles. I don't care so much about low weight and high specifications ... but fit matters to me a
    lot. I'm thoroughly fed up with my 15-year-old hand-me-down 12-speed that's two inches too small!!

    I may not even be able to afford a brand new bike, but I'd be more than happy to pay someone for a
    professional fitting so that I could buy a used bike with more confidence. I don't know enough about
    geometry and riding styles to do this myself.

    Are there good, skilled shops around that would sell me such a fitting service even if I couldn't
    afford to buy a brand new bike from them?

    I live in North L.A. basin, Altadena/Pasadena. I've searched old threads on RST and found one from
    2000 that recommended Edge, Tri-zombies, and I.Martin Imports as good tri shops in the area. Are
    those still valid recommendations?

    Does anyone have experience with Pasadena Cyclery for triathlon bicycles, and could make a
    recommendation? (they're about a mile from
    me).

    Thanks so much, -E

    Yes on Edge Cyclesports in Orange County and Tri-Zombies. More info here:
