Hands hurting, suggestions?
Hey all,
I commute to work (7 miles to and 7 miles back) and after I'm done I've found that my hands are hurting. I went to several bike shops, and pretty much got a different answer every time for how to stop this. I got my saddle adjusted and my bike frame is correct for my height (5'10" 165 on 18" frame). I wore gloves for the first time today and they helped a little bit, but not much. Does anyone have anything else I could try? I think I might need to get a bike with drop bars, as mine is a straight bar mountain bike (Trek 820) that I had street tires put on for commuting in the city. Is this the best solution for this problem, since I feel like I've tried everything else? Anyway, I don't know much about cycling, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
