Hey up. I switched my bars at the weekend, from some alu 660mm to 760 carbon bars and I also reduced the stem length from 110 to 80mm. Conincidently so as to provide all the info I also put on some new to me forks, moving from a set of toras to a pair of rebas. I took it for a ride at Cannock yesterday and I love my ‘new’ bike, much greater control and the difference in weight the forks bring is spectacular.
After finishing I found my left wrist was aching on the outside of my wrist, my right also but to a much lesser degree. My first thought was ‘are these bars too wide for me’? before I cut a bit off my new carbon bars, has anyone else experienced this or any other ideas as to what might cause the ache?
Thanks.
