So I'm a little bit of a geek sometimes. I came across this app last year and was curious if anyone had used it and what your thoughts were on it. It's the Road Bike Fit app. Found it in the Play Store so I'm not sure if it's available on IOS. I did purchase it, cost was around $10 or so. I've used it twice and it seems to do a decent job, but probably not perfect as a lot is left to how the camera is held when the pictures are taken. Any one else try it?

It might be able to correct the most glaring issues, but that's about it... it can't take in consideration YOU, i.e. your riding style, your experience, athletic background, current/previous injuries/issues, terrain you train/race in, distances you train/race, etc. etc. etc.

Basically, as long as you know this and don't expect it to be great, then spend the $10, but if you're looking for something that will make a serious difference, save the money and get a professional bike fit instead.
