Hey Rube,
I guess you might be right. Could save some serious $!
Still I'm torn back and forth...
I've changed literally everything on my old mountaibike to reduce stress on my arms and hands. Higher bar, a raiser or whatever that's called in English... the thing you put on your front wheel axle to higher the bar. Also changed the seat and played with seat position.
Never really worked - unfortunately!
I guess it's about time. Season starts and I definitely need a change.
I will let you guys know my decision... as soon as I'm able to make one^^
All the best,
Carlito
