Proper Handle Bar Choices
Submitted by:Billnourse
Many people have asked the question of the proper bar choice and position for more comfort or even because their hands go to sleep when riding, here's a method to find out the proper height and setback for your size.
1. Sit on the bike in normal riding position with someone holding it upright.
2. Hands in lap, close eyes for 30 seconds.
3. With eyes still closed reach up for bars. Where ever your hands come to naturally is where the bars should be.
4. Adjust bars to that position if they will go there, if not, find new bars that will.
