Weight? I'm 185 lbs. at 5'9" fully clothed. The bike is about 30 lbs. Tire pressure has been 60 psi on the rear and 55 psi on the front when freshly topped up. Over a week's time the pressure drops to maybe 50 at the rear and 45 at the front before I top it up again. The sidewall of the tire specifies 45 psi to 65 psi.
You could try posting 2 photos of you on the bike, one with pedals level, one with them vertical, over on the Fitting Your Bike forum and complain of hand pain. See what you get for responses..
