Unintended consequences: About a year ago, at the urging of three of the best cyclists in my club, I got a mirror that replaces one of my bar plugs on my drop bars.
This was for all of the obvious reasons. What wasn’t obvious is that now I look down at the mirror every few seconds and my neck doesn’t hurt as much as it used to, because I’m moving my head more -- instead of the locked-on-the-road-ahead position for hours and hours. One of the unintended consequences of shifters that coax the hands away from their usual position on the brake hoods -- a change of position over hours and hours of riding.

Go figure. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To post to this group, send email to rbw-owners-bu...@googlegroups.com.
