I had my frame custom fit for me-- a Calfee Tetra Custom, that is a 49 x 49 (yes, I am short at 5'3") and despite the custom fit and set up, I begin to suffer from unusual tightness in my right arm when riding more than 20- 25 miles. This doesn't occur at all with my left arm. The pain is right above the elbow. Sometimes the tightness is pretty painful. The pain goes away with stretching, whereI must take a break to stretch it. This usually helps.
I try to keep my shoulders and arms relaxed.
I find it strange the the tightness is on one arm, although I of course do the majority of my braking and shifting on this arm and perhaps this is contributing to the pain.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate hearing them.
