[QUOTE="wardy, post: 130222, member: 16710"] [b]either way[/b] works but i would let your body kinda tell you. meaning. if your wrists are hurting like heck after a ride i would lesson the angle of grip on the bars. I think you give up strength for endurance with this grip. Plus in my mind and many may disaggree....... the wrist already bent some in the "door knob" grip, you loose some flexability movement there. This could possibly increase your chance of a sprain or worse. I realize many riders out there ride this way but i guess i am old school to a point. Not to mention 20 years ago if we seen a guy with his levers pointing to the sky we KNEW he was a new rider......now everyone does it. I generally keep my levers pointed downward so that they are easy to reach. I also in cornering try to keep my legs out from under the bars when possible, at least keep the knee joint behind the bar. and never ever lock your leg straight. anyone coming to dirt week and goes to my schools will here me talk about alot of this.
