I as a n00b to this biking thing tried some of these fitments. Ive done the local biking pro's setup, the super american bike brand branded super pricey setup and the LBS setup. What did we learn? A basic setup at your LBS, given that they are decent (read probably not Cajees) is 90% of the work. A fitment with a local pro who does it, will help tweak your setup if you're getting serious. The super expensive american branded one, will make you feel cool and can pinpoint problems maybe the eye don't pick up on but that's a maybe. It comes down to the professional doing the fit and his experience. Not the shiny gadgets in the fitment room. In the end, we have a trainer and we do it for ourselves mostly, so a bit of reading, some experience (mines limited but growing), getting over the fear of getting something wrong, leaning on your LBS a bit and you should be 90%-95% happy. I also got in depth about how to do the setups with lasers and levels, et al. For most people, an eyeball and the riders feel is going to be a better guide. No expert, just my findings to date. Start with your trusty LBS, (mine is Linden and they are superb), move onto a local bikefit type operator if needed but I think a sports physiologist / biokeneticist of some sort would be my second / third option before I tried some storeman and his laser goodie-ma-gadget edit - cause my English language usage sucks sometimes
