Anyone else?
710 was ok, way better than 680.
I tried a 780 about a year ago with a slightly shorter stem than before. It seemed churlish not to try it first before cutting it down! And it seemed ok at first!
I put another 760 bar on my full susser on the strength of that.
All seemed joyous for six months or so, including four 12 hour+ long rides in the Highlands.
Gradually through the autumn I’ve been getting increasing discomfort in the arms, hands and shoulders.
Then I rode a bike with narrower bars and realised the discomfort wasn’t present, so I’m back to 710 and a 10mm longer stem, and things seem to be getting better.
I am 60 years old, and it looks like I’m a victim of fashion!
