i am constantly having to move around on the handlebars to keep my hands from getting sore enough to cramp. I may just need different handlebars.
The biggest problem is changing gears. The shifters on the tube and I hate taking a hand off the bars to shift so I usually just leave it in one gear.
It just doesn’t feel right. This was dad’s bike originally. I bought it from him long ago. It’s probably not setup right for me.
By the time I change everything I may as well get a new or newer bike.
