Hands Numb
Hello To All,
This is my first post here on the Fixed Gear section Of Bike Forums
(But have been reading posts for over 2 months)
and am not quite sure if this is where this question belongs but i ride a fixed gear bike
so it seemed appropriate
The question Goes as follows:
(Due to my Bike Being my main Means of transportation)
I ride an average of 25+ miles a day
To and from work and
from point A to B sometimes C (depending on my knee)
but lately after riding for any length of time
my hands get this "Pins & Needles" feeling almost numbing sensation
which at first didnt bother me Too Much but this past 2 weeks the "Pins & Needles"
feeling has lasted for up to a few Hours after my ride was over
I was wondering if anyone Here has had this problem or knew of anyone that Did/Does
and how they went about correcting the situation and if its something i should be overly concerned with ?
Thank You All and Thank you for all the Informative Matireal that is posted here
