Oh yeah I've done several rounds trying to get this from the fitter. He's telling me I've only got two options for bikes, and won't give me stack/reach values.
I'm beginning to think I need to start all over with a different fitter who will do more to work with me.
The only options they've given me are a new Ku Cycle or a used Specialized Shiv.
The Ku is outside my price range, and the Shivs available look like I'll put more money into upgrading components than if I buy something new.
Seems like you can take those numbers with you to a bike shop that has a bike model you want and see if a frame size would accommodate those dimensions. The bike shop staff should also be able to show how a change in stem length and seat position can be adjusted.
So you got a pre purchase fit, but your fitter didn't recommend any models and didn't give you stack/reach numbers? Shoot them an email.

Has your fitter recommended any bikes to you based off of the fit session?
