I do plan, regardless of where I go, to make sure that what I get when done is a good set of measurements and dimensions that I can use to help narrow down a good bike for me. And yes, as I mentioned above, I watched a few of Cam's videos with Neill. Unfortunately, AUS is a very, very, very far trip for me to get fit. =P
I found my fitter through bikefit.com. Doing a quick search on their site I get a couple of results near Boston: 1) Fit Werx 2 in Peabody, MA and 2) The Velo Resource in Auburn, NH.
Since Fit Werx 2 is closer, here's their web address:
https://fitwerx.com. I'm not endorsing them, just providing some info as an option to check out.
I've only used bikefit.com once to find one fitter, but I ended up hitting the jackpot. Not sure how strong of an indicator my experience is for other folks in other territories. However, it can't hurt to call and ask a few questions to see where it leads.
