I would like to have a professional bike fitting and wondered if anyone could reccommend me someone to go to. I`m based in suffolk so ideally someone in east anglia but i`m happy to travel. I might also be working in london later this year so i could wait and see someone there.

    I have heard mosquito bikes in London is quite good.

    However, do a search, as there are lots of good people out there and it will help you decide what to look for in a fitter.

    Some sites are

    peter wright cycles
    steve hogg (I think)
    the bike whisperer

    good luck and please update with what happens

    New bike shop opened in London, Swift Cycles:

    Currently doing Retul fittings for £100, and good deals on servicing.

    Dropped my bike in there last week for a fitting and got chatting to them; very helpful and knowledgeable guys.

    I have spoken to the guys at swift cycles, i hadn't heard of retul fitting before but it looks quite interesting. I think the nearest bike science to me is tunbridge wells. Has anybody had a retul fitting at swift cycles or bike science in tunbridge wells and how did you find it, have you noticed any difference to your cycling. At the moment i'm tempted to book a retul fitting at swift cycles

    I don't have personal experience however, a cycling colleague paid for the whole bike fit analysis and was extremely impressed with the before and after results:
