Does anyone know a Bike-fitting service that sell parts?

Hello

I think I need a bike fit as I get sore shoulders and headaches after rides (tension headaches my GP tells me). I'm doing exercises to improve my core to take some of the pressure of the neck/shoulders region but I'd like to know if anyone knows of a bike-fitting service in London, presumably in a shop that will actually sell you the parts required and fit them in line with the recommendations of the bike fit. I realise stem and bars etc are relatively easy to do but I'd rather just pay someone to get it right.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    I don't imagine there is a bike fitting service that doesn't sell parts.

    Sigma Sports do fitting and have plenty of parts to sell. There will be countless other palces too.

    Indeed most who fit have parts to sell...what you need to do is find one that does not use the fit as a way of selling the parts.

    Cadence Sport (in Midlands I know) do excellent work and never actually offer you anything, but when you need a part (longer stem or whatever) and ask he always has something that fits the bill - he just never actively plugs the stuff.

    He will quite happily let you walk out with a fist full of data and not sell you a sinlge extra thing - no hard sell tactics.
