I've been suffering with sore thumbs recently and wondered if anyone had any tips on bike setup? The problem is pain pushing things with my thumbs (changing gear, peeling an orange, that sort of thing).
The bike I ride most is my Charge Mixer, I run a standard flat bar with stubby bar ends and normal grips. Would changing bars help, what about those ergon grips?
Any helpful chat appreciated.
Angle of your shifters?
Chunky grips might help?
Race Face Strafe are nice and chunky! 🙂
Weird thing is bike has an Alfine hub so only one shifter, but both thumbs feel the same...which makes me think it's more the bar or something. May try more chunky grips though, cheers.
Carbon bars also aid trail buzz niggles.
