Renthal Bars

[sinto607276]

As a follow on to this but more in the way of why go down this route?
I have standard bars and after a few hours of riding start to ache on the heel area of my hand where the schipoid knox armour is although not coursed by this.


If i rotated my standards bars forward a bit does this change the geometry in any way, anyone tired it? what  does the renthal bars do thats different?

It won't necessarily, (I don't think but others might say differently) change the geometry of the bike, but it will change your geometry as you'll be leaning forward more, putting more strain on your wrists as they'll be taking more weight of your body. It won't seem as if they are, but it's easy to try, just adjust before you go on next big run, take the allan key with you as you'll prob want to change it back before you get home.
I've ridden sports bikes, tourers and all sorts in between, and I would say the best riding style is as upright as possible,  thus causing no strain on your wrists what so ever. Hence tourer bike riders aren't under as much strain as a sports bike rider.
You could also try bar risers as apposed to moving the handlebars forward or back, this would in turn raise your body posture and also release the strain in your wrists as they wouldn't be taking the weight as much.
I know I went on a bit, but you can't really give info like this in two sentences.
