Title: Erogonomic Handlebars
Post by: CanadianRider on April 23, 2008, 04:51:52 PM
I've noticed over time that my hands are slightly swivelled when I'm holding the bars.  They are in the same plane as when I hold my forearms out with hands flat, but turned outwards a little.  I have a friend who also notices it, and in his case it makes his hands ache a bit.

Are there similar handlebars where the hands remain in a straight position relative to the arms?

Thanks in advance.

Clip-ons may help. They will be more forward/back adjustable to match your hands better. The availabilty of 37mm clip-ons will be limited.

I usually have to use them since I have broke both forearms in the past and they are not straight anymore.
