Hand savers? Flat Road Bike Handlebars
Hi -
I was in a bike shop recently, and mentioned my long problem of numb hands on any ride over 15 miles. The guy mentioned that the bars that have a flat part near the stem that is flat instead of round. { c--c } (those are handlebars - and the flattened part would be between the c's) He showed me one, and says that the flat style top is easier on the hands. Anyone have experience with these? See pic below. I forgot how to make pics show up on the post without you having to click on a link. hmmmmm, well, it's the FSA K-Wing Carbon Bar 31.8mm.
