Msinc.  the bike fitting went well.  Took all their measurements and such.  Rode both 54 and 52cm Trek 2.1.  Really nice bike.  The 54 was better.  May need to go with a cm shorter stem.  Stock was a 17.  They didn't have the 1.2 Trek in stock.  Ordering it and should be in next week.  the 1.2 is more B's price range, but I can make up the difference for the 2.1 with $$$ my parents gave me for graduation.  That leaves no $$ for gear, though.  It was my first time on a realvroad bike.  I have always ridden a mtn bike even when I commuted 10 miles to work a few summers ago.  You'll see what I end up with on the bike thread you started.

Glad to hear the fitting went well.  I bet it feel really different compared to your MTB.  BTW I did my Ireland bike tour on a mountain bike, they can certainly do long distances, you just won't be winning any races.

Was it comfortable?  Are you going with clipless pedals?

Hey, same size as me.  
Nice work getting fitted. I used to have a 52cm Trek 2100, which was a little small for me, and eventually ended up with a 54cm Lemond Zurich which fit me much better. Long distances are more comfortable, and I'm less cramped up. My fixed gear is a 52 and has a correspondingly short top tube, but it's nice to have a smaller bike for riding in traffic.

Yeah, it was comfy.  The seat sucked.  Put pressure on tender bits.  The 52 felt really short and cramped.

I have clipless SPD pedal/shoes for my mtn bike.  All depends on the model I get, how much $$ I have to buy goodies with.

I never bothered to get road shoes. I just used mtn/SPD pedals and the same shoes. Of course, I don't shave my legs either, and my helmet has a visor. (all mtn bike carryovers)

I now go with SPD's for both of my bikes, it's easier that way.  In fact I need to find a home for my road shoes, no need for those anymore.

Sorry to hear about the saddle, but that's not uncommon.  I need to get a new one for my folding bike.

You must be quite a bit taller than me, my Orbea is 48 cm.

It's nice to have recessed cleats too.  And I wear mountain bike shorts instead of lycra shorts (although the guys I ride with sometimes give me a hard time about it, I know the real reason why ).
