My Bike got a few tweaks today.

On my last Simon bar I rode a Fleegle and LOVED it. I had a feeling I'd end up back with one but wanted to give my old Mary a fair shake (LOVED her on my Rita, but was just too ADD to keep them on Simon Bar 1...new Frame, new fork etc...wanted to baseline the bike with something less dramatic than a Mary. Never got a chance to put them back on because the Fleegles were so great but I always regretted shelving the Marys.
I was a stone Mason for the last 8 years so my hands are really sensitive to bad positioning. For this Simon I went from a Low Rise bar with about 5° of sweep and with the rigid fork I was noticing plenty of numbness a day or two after my rides. I swapped to the Ergons last week (Thanks Mark!!) and certainly noticed a difference, but that really got me thinking...so on went mary with my old lockons. We'll see how this goes after tomorrows ride.
