Ask a Bicycle Question - Part 5

[Jay Bee]

Hi I realised that I am putting a lot of strain on my wrists and neck while riding my MTB. How can I adjust the height of my handlebar to make it higher? It is already at the top of the steerer tube. Do I have to change the stem? I can't put the saddle any lower.

frame too big?

frame too big?

I don't think so. It is a 17" frame (size S) and I am about 167? The frame feels a bit small if anything, when I compare to my foldie (not sure how useful that comparison is since everything is adjustable on my foldie). But how to be sure?

Last year, when repainting my house, I lock this bike outside my house for 3 weeks (with the license plate removed). No body take.

Last week I was on the PCN at Pasir Ris after the overhead bridge crossing from Tampines. There was this guy on a bike that keeps going left right left right and very slowly. At one point, he kept to the left a bit longer and I took the chance to over take him. Just as I was beside him, he swayed to the right again and I have to call out "Excuse me!!", he replied .."No speeding!!!" I looked at my speedo and it was at 13.XX kmh only.
