Richard, I can't really speak to much to off the bike pain, as I am not a doctor of any sort, but does the pain happen immediately after riding? Or do you wake up the next day in pain after riding, but *not* in pain on the day after *not* riding? If you wake up in pain only after riding, it's probably riding position related.
The formula is only for swept back bars in the realm of 35-45 degrees. I don't have a formula for Albatross shaped bars, but my rule is if you are slight with narrow shoulders, pick the narrower of the two options. Bars that are too wide can easily cause a pinching sensation between the shoulder blades and at the base of the neck. Make sure the tips of your bars are angled down, at least 12 degrees. If they are flat or pointed up, it will be very unergonomic. -james On Sunday, April 10, 2022 at 6:53:40 PM UTC-4 [email protected] wrote: > Fascinating!
