Try elevating the nose of the saddle VERY slightly, in case you are sliding forward and putting too much weight on your hands. My Bianchi is fine when the air is calm, but it is extremely twitchy in a crosswind. I can reach down to change gears, but otherwise I keep both hands on the bars under these conditions.
