But to answer someone's question above, my focus of this fit was really being comfortable in the saddle. I'm planning on IMAZ this November and my biggest concern with the bike portion is just being able to tolerate ~7 hours on the bike. My experience thus far, with my longest rides only being in the 50 mile range (including one 70.3) is that after about 3 hours, I am absolutely ready to get off the bike.
With this priority I would have done the fitting on your road bike.
