New to Biking

kcflyer1957

I bought a Specialized Diverge...they call it a road bike for people who like to get rowdy. It has the droop handlebars that I find more comfortable for longer rides...many different ways to place your hands for comfort. I also rode it in a "gravel grinder" ride between local wineries on gravel roads. I had a Raleigh "fitness" bike, but as my rides got longer (over 25 miles) my wrists and hands were numb because I could only put my hands in one position. I love my bike.
