Hello everyone. I just bought a new Fuji Absolute 1.1 last week and went for a bike ride on the local bike path this morning. I have to mention that I'm just getting into bike riding and hadn't ridden since my teens.....I am now 57. The bike feels great but my hands are going numb on the grips. It feels like I have to much of my weight on the bars(215lb). I ordered a pair of Ergon gp3 grips last week and I'm sure they will help but I'm wondering if I need to raise my bar height or get a adjustable stem. What are your thoughts? Thank you for any and all advise.
I really want to make this work....I've had knee surgeries and need to strengthen my legs and loose a little weight. Walking or jogging wont work for me.
