ekib bike fit: any reviews?

[claus]

Does someone here have experience with ekib for getting a bike fit?
If so, could you please describe what was done and whether it was "useful"?
For example, is a fit bike used and then you get some measurements to change your own bike accordingly?
The only results I get when searching for this are from the site itself
or from some "walled gardens" (f*c*book, linkedin, etc)

I didn't have a ekib fit, I had a "specialized/software" one ... the most recomened fitter in San Francisco. after a 1,000 miles, I had changed everything back. My key take away...

What works for an hour inside flat and leval doesn't work for 5 hours up and down hills. I think the best fit would be to get your local club to buy one of the software pkgs and then take the video while on a real ride .. then process with app after the ride. and make little changes over many rides and over and over.

IMO. : )

So many different ways to sit well on a roadbike... A measurement-based bike fit can be extremely helpful for people who haven't found a good way yet, there's a chance (but not a big one?) for someone already sitting well to discover a better way through measurements and formulas, but often enough measurements and formulas fail to deliver, because the one particular way the formulas enforce just isn't good for the rider in question. A good fitter will use talk as much as measurements and formulas
