Thanks ! I also have same size hand as my wife who is 5’9 . In men’s glove
size I am borderline small and roomy medium . I guess I can always head to
riv HQ and try couple of bikes set up with Shimano and TRP.

I have both levers on different bikes. I guess I have smaller hands (though
I wear a medium or large sized glove). At any rate, I prefer the simple
Shimano. The TRP RRL are too wide for my mitts. Sure enough, I can use them
(and have been, for 9 or 10 years now), but I find them wider and
I've always found the Shimano levers to be just fine, but for my hands
(glove size lg to xl) the TRPs with their wider hoods are so much better. I
also find the curved levers provide more effective braking from the hoods.

The Shimano aero levers have been called other names over the last couple

find them supremely comfortable, becuase they fit my hands.

Thanks Mike . Good point . Though I have smallish hands for my height (
wrist size 6.25 inches). But I do see your point . Appreciate your insight.
