First, my experience was absolutely phenomenal. I had pain, now no longer. Second, it didn’t cost me five arms and six legs. Third, all I had to do was inquire about getting help. Fourth, I received personalized guidance, not just run-of-the-mill comments, and now I will absolutely contact Jerry or Steve for future issues.
I was connected with Jerry Gerlich, one of the few trainee’s of Steve Hogg, through my purchase of G8 insoles at Castle Hill Cycles online in Austin, Texas. I thought I was just buying a set of insoles to dampen my unending knee problem on my own, but boy was I wrong.
I was just about to throw in the towel when Jerry offered help on my bike fit. Saying Yes, was the best bike decision I ever made. I listened exactly to his suggestions, AND stuck with it. Over the next few days (and weeks) we communicated and made minor adjustments. I am still shocked that I am riding pain free. We incorporated use of the heel wedge, adjusted insoles and arch support, and modified my pedal setup and baammm, a happy 30-something-year-old ready to race again.
Feels good. Big thanks.
Glad the G8 insoles, pedals and position tips panned out for you Kirby. Your willingness to listen and pay close attention to details has served you well. Take care, stay in touch and keep us posted on your progress through the 2014 season.
