Subject: RE: Arm going numb during long bike ride??? Roland, I'm no fit expert, but I think your fit is slightly (or maybe significantly) off. Have you been professionally fit yet? Your toe might be a many things. Shoes too tight, saddle too high, bad cleat position...I don't know. It does sound like your saddle may be a tad too far forward. If you move back 0.5-1 cm, you might solve the arm numbness by moving your center of gravity back a tad, taking weight off your hands/upper body and onto your butt and pedals (where it should be). You may need to move the handlebars up a tad as well to stay comfortable, but once your hands are unweighted that might not be as critical. Or just go get (re)fitted if all of this sounds like hocus pocus. G'luck -Jason |
