I'll give it some more time and adjust to the new feel. I cycle to work daily so I'm sure it won't take long.
I am trimming down my handlebars though. They measured at about 27inches going to try them at 24 inches. My previous bike was 22 inches.
Thanks again for the input, its welcomed.
Squeeze the brakes gently! You don't need to grip hard to stop safely. The stock bars are wide on this bike and I swapped them out for some Wald 896# bars. It looks and feel more fit for riding in town.
