Anyway, I don't feel over-extended, although I wouldn't mind if I were a bit more upright. When I bought the bike, a couple of months ago, it was suppose to come w/ an adapter which would help put me a bit more of an upright position. I wanted the adapter in black not chrome/silvery color. The lbs people have had a difficult time getting a black colored adapter... they do have the normal chrome color, but that make the bike look tacky. Black would blend in with the (blk)headset much better.
Could be as simple as giving your saddle a "nose up" position (or moving the saddle back), putting more weight on your butt instead of your hands. If this helps, stand with your feet shoulder lenth apart and try to sit. The further your butt is behind you the less you will need extend your arms to balance your weight....oh crap, why re-invent the wheel, here:
Wrists
Wrist pain is often casued by poor upper body posture.
It can also be caused by having the saddle angle too low in front: This tends to make you slide forward as you ride, and you wind up using your hands to push yourself back into position.
