Am considering changing the handlebars of a Cube Elly - they just do not quite work for partner.

She thinks that something more like a Dutch handlebar would be more comfortable.

Looking for suggestions and advice.

Have you tried changing the height and the rotation? They can make a bigger difference then you might expect.

Great value, but they're sold out at the moment, contact PX to see when they're next in stock.
The initial picture of the On-One Mike bars on the Planet X website is a bit misleading, look at picture 4 for a better understanding of the shape.

Yes - have done quite a bit of adjustment - it ends up that the angle of her hands affects her shoulders.

We hoped that had been enough but, even with everything we have done, it isn't quite there.

Thank you.

Thank you - will review with partner later!
