Herniated necks come in all kinds of varieties.
For me personally ... an aerobar is a wonderful thing to have.
The aerobar TT position, with the shoulders high and the neck arched backwards somehow alleviates the pain.
It also helps for my herniated back at the same time
Whether you have a hybrid is not the question, I believe.
Having a hybrid is a choice of how and where you ride ... the handlebar decides the position of the neck.
