I read that in the Velonews that came yesterday. If I was in Idaho I'd be standing in line for one. Maybe next year I can do it when I visit a friend in Pocatello...if he's not booked solid.

They have a web based do it yourself fit sytem on their web site for only $50. What's the difference between their system and all the other DIY systems on the web?

I don't know--it's the first time I've read about this system. Maybe some more experienced riders can chime in.
