Also it could be that you are leaning too heavily on your hands. Try moving your saddle forward a bit this will make you sit upright a bit more and take some of the pressure off your hands. Distance from front of saddle to handlebar should be the lentgh from elbow to finger tip plus 4-5cm. Good luck Buster |
