i cut a jell shoe insert to fit the top of the grip then wraped it like a bat with cloth tape.....now iam jelling..no pain in my arms ....

That's freakin ghetto

haha just grip the bike with your legs and suppost yourself with your back and legs not your arms.. thats what kills you on the long rides

That's freakin ghetto

I thought the exact same thing :wtf

-dont hold the bars so tight. move around the bike.
-goto the gym:D

Get the Motovation bar ends...

and a nice massage after every ride!

+3 on bein GHETTO!

I believe a set of pro grip gel grips cost about the same as a pair of Dr.Scholl's boot inserts ( 10 bucks ).This way you won't have to hang your head in shame every time you pull up beside some fellow bikers.
( unless your using your old stinky inserts then that's just pathetic ).
Do the right thing Macgyver!

It's a joke guys just like his 40lb. bar ends.:lol

That's freakin ghetto

I thought the same thing.

I mean, c'mon. the bike is dark blue/yellow highlights. at least get a dr. scholls that is close to the same color.

the turquoise one makes the bike look hideous:nono










:lol:lol:lol

Chaz498 has it right. Get some heavier barends. It will eliminate the bar buss dramatically. Plus practice keeping your back straight, it will ease the pressure on your wrists,

I'm an avid road cyclist (long distance) and we all suffer from this. It's part of the sport. It's caused by pressure on the Ulnar and/or Median nerves in the hand/wrist. You can read up on it if you like.

What we do, which I've carried over to motorcycling, is remember to periodically reposition the hands and body slightly to alleviate the pressure on the hands.

More weight on the pegs, heavier bar ends, gel grips (we use gel in the cycling glove itself) all help. Good luck and ride on... :punk
