I added the Ergo grips (did install them correctly the first time, thanks to instructions) and made the switch from a backpack to panniers.

That can be caused by having your shoulders rolled instead of flat.<br /><br />So now your shopping list could be: new stem, new seat post, new saddle, new handlebars.<br /><br />And with a list that long, maybe it is just the grips...Alannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094176709529713758.post-87494119458523560932009-09-04T04:54:25.724-07:002009-09-04T04:54:25.724-07:00Ergons + H-Bar = Happy Hands...Ergons + H-Bar = Happy Hands...Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07240155430942169455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094176709529713758.post-57417665004146927582009-09-04T04:31:46.047-07:002009-09-04T04:31:46.047-07:00Too funny, Pat.
