Ditto. I think it's an indication of (more or less) proper bike fit. On one of my bikes, my positioning/bend of the bars/whatever isn't right and my wrists start screaming. I swapped the original 'ergo' bars to 'compact' bars, but that didn't help.

Well, I want to swap in deeper drop bars on one of my other bikes, so I'm going to take the slightly different bend bars off that bike and try them. If still no luck, I give up - something in the fit obviously isn't right, and that bike will become my 'ride the hoods and see the sights' machine.
