I don't know if anybody has these issues but I'm having trouble with my bike fit.
It seems that I can never get it just right. When I think I have it perfect (and at times it does seem to be perfect), it only lasts a while and something begins to bug me. It may be great for two or three months and then I feel like the seat is off or the reach; I adjust it and seems great again for a while, but then later on I'm back into messing with something. I don't know if it has to do with me, the time of year, temperature or what!!
I really have not changed any equipment... well... I did add FSA compact bars about 1 year ago and they were great until about a couple of months ago; now they bug me.. I think it's the oversized flat part which is oval, but they were great at the beginning.
I started thinking it may be the kind of riding I do.. Some real long rides (3-4 hrs), some short (1 to 1.5 hrs) but intense, some on flat terrain, some on very hilly terrain, frequency? (3 times/week on weekends only)...
Is this normal? or do I need to rethink my bikefit (BTW, bike sized and fitted at LBS; 4 years ago when I got the bike) or my fitness?
