AI6YR BenDefinitely pulled a muscle in my back from bicycling. Sigh. I'll survive. It's been bothering me for a few days, but discovered I make it worse and exactly what muscle when I get on a bike. (I blame using the lower bars on the road bike 🤪 ) Stretching seems to be mostly fixing this, but... ANNOYING! #firstworldproblems #BikeTooter #random
David Sacerdote@ai6yr you can get a riser stem which increases the height of the bars for a road bike. I use one which raises it just enough to keep my back happy
@dsacer The stems on my road bikes are all adjustable (to a degree). I notice the new Trek 1500 I have had them in the very lowest position, and I have now raised them up an inch... I suspect that will help. Probably too low so I was putting all my weight on my arms and stressing out my core, lol.
