Thanks -- I'd really appreciate some detailed photos of it.
I get the tingling hands after about 30 minutes of riding. I'm playing with various handlebar and saddle height settings. My Verve has an adjustable quill stem, so I can test all sorts of different combinations on that bike. I think that keeping my bars down to keep more weight off the saddle will be best, but I need to find a bar that will be more comfortable to me than my current setup (which is the stock Trek bar with Ergon GP3 grips).
