Thanks Esther, I need to have my bike modified as I do ride leaning into the handlebars. I'll take it to the shop and see what they can do to get me a little more upright. Those magnetic bracelets are bracelets. I've never owned or worn a piece of jewelry in my life. I was imagining something more therapeutic looking.

LOL You sound shocked. :) Maybe this is a good thing, who knows? Yeah, they look like bracelets. Many of the golf pros wear them and they went a long way, I think, in making the manufactors make them attractive. They can swap out your stem to make you more upright. I hope it helps. My husband had his changed too. He had a very aggressive stance on his bike. It was killing his arms though so the fitter switched the stem. He also put on aero bars to give him a place to rest whenever it's safe to use them. He loves those things. They scare me to death. I sure hope some of this helps. And either way, I hope you find the right solution for you. Carpal tunnel hurts - no way around it. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
