Zitat von Ray im Beitrag #22 use the cruise control more, if fitted - even for just a couple hundred metres it helps you stretch you fingers, relax the nerves and get better circulation don't grip the bars so tightly - I often ride with just my palms on the bars and my fingers stretched out, resting on the levers Ideally you want a staight line down your forearm, across the top of your hand and down your stretched out middle finger. If your wrist is flexed you can put pressure on the nerves. Rotate the brake lever around the bar until you have a straight line. |
Zitat von Ray im Beitrag #22 It may not be vibes. I've been getting this for years, and it always gets worse in tense situations such as heavy traffic in foreign cities. I thought it might be carpel tunnel syndrome, but I went to the local physio and she told me that it was very likely constriction of the nerves and blood supply in the shoulders, probably due to years of slaving over a hot keyboard as I've worked in IT for many years. Sure enough on the physio's advice I've now started relaxing my grip and pulling my shoulders back whenever it starts, and that eases it within a few seconds. I have found that fitting bar risers has helped as that allows me to maintain a more relaxed posture.

Zitat von Ray im Beitrag #22 One suggestion from my own experience is to keep tension out of your shoulders - it’s surprising how much that can affect strength of grip (over tight). I noted that my right shoulder is often held high (towards my helmet) - focussing on keeping my right elbow pointing down is key for me to relax my shoulder and grip. Maybe this can help you also. |

Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #8 Went out for a longer ride and the problem reared its head again, both my hands started to get numb and I was worried it was now indeed time to admit I was becoming an old fucka. Mrs Bravo and I headed down to Taunton to have a rideout with our chums(in groups no larger than 6 people) last Friday. Halfway down we stopped for some lunch and both hands tingled, luckily I'd bunged an old nearly knackered pair of summer gloves in my top box,wore them for the rest of the time on the bike no problems.

Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #28Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #8 The new gloves a bit tight? Especially on the flabby/fleshy part of the palm opposite the thumb?
