haha. alright the only thing that bothers me after riding for extended period of a time is my hands. like really really bad, its the only thing that makes me hafta stop riding... then i hafta basically peal my hands off the grips they hurt so bad then let them relax a few minutes

i've been told its from holding on too tight to the handlebars

i have flexx bars with spyder slt grips

whats the cure????

Get one of those gripper things that works out your hands. You know that thing with a spring at the end. It will help to build your strength.

It's also possible that your grips are too large for your hands. Bigger grips wear you out faster.
