Well it's not the gloves that are giving me the pins and needles,went out for 30km and didn't wear the gloves and the same situation occurred so I adjusted the bar angle and lowered the seat post and...

Im out on the bike for 2-3 hours at a time ill have a try setting the seat and bars differently

Never worn gloves before even before I took up cycling,tried xl on they were so baggy so got the L size which are a snug fit but not tight,thought that it might be the fact in gripping the handles...

Bought myself some Chiba touch full fongered gloves trouble is I've started to get pins and needles and numbness in my right hand is this a common thing

Might be tempted with the computer for a fiver that's got to be a bargain ;)

I chose my bike via the LBS however all my parts, accsesories and clothing I've got through evans bike shops price wise cheaper than my lbs but also as I'm a complete newbie to biking I'd sooner...

Hi bfergie it's got race x5 on the seat just that I've noticed there's not much padding on the seat you still think i need time with it

The seat I have on the forme isn't the greatest so it's going to be my first upgrade I know it's a personnel choice when it comes to seats but which are the best ones out there for £50 ish I've seen...

Ill have a look at fixing the puncture tomorrow and ill just get a spare tube while I'm at it lol
