Recommend a bike fitter in Los Angeles
Who is an experienced fitter you’ve had a good experience with?
I’m on the east side so I prefer someone close and not in WLA/Santa Monica.

I don't think there are any regulars on this forum that live in Los Angeles.
A friend used Coach Briton and liked the process (not high-tech, but gave training tips as well). The person I used years ago has since closed down.

Around the Cycle in Pasadena offers bike fitting, per their web page:
Basic Performance Bike Fit - $99
Max Performance Bike Fit - $189
Pretty sure it's a guy who comes up from San Diego or something to do it, though, not a regular thing that they have in-store. Now tht I think of it, I think they even had a "bike-fit day" a while back. I saw a bike-fitting gizmo of some kind at REI in Arcadia, too, but they suggested it was just a minimal thing they do. You might ask, though. Good luck.

Edit: I was able to get up there for Basic Fit this weekend, and I found it pretty worthwhile. Mike fit me with some orthotics, as my knees are a bit out of whack. Helped me out with seat, pedal, handlebar adjustment. I didn't go for the more expensive fitting, but I found it useful and worthwhile.
