sliding to the hoods just when you need to brake.
And certainly get some nicely palm padded Gloves.
Here again,if a shorter stem takes weight off my hands,it wouldn't be as big of an issue.But I did get some double tape sided foam to put on.I put my hands on the hoods a lot.That my change as I get more experience-and get my stem/handlebar setup figured out.
