Thanks guys. I want to raise them to see if it will help with hand numbness. I have anout 300 miles riding it, most rides in the 8 - 12 mile range. I get numb on anything over 5 or so miles. I keep seeinf raising the bars as a sugestion for numbness

For the record, i got it used off craigslist. It is a 52cm frame. I am 5'6".

I have tried a few padded gloves. I also started lifting weights 2 weeks ago to hopefully help with my core strength.

I thought if it was a simple and inexpensive thing i would give a try and see if it helps with the numbness. Maybe i should give the weight lifting a few more weeks and see if that helps.

Thanks
