Riding out the Recession Ergonomically

I have two problems with MSG bikes who carried out the ergonomic fit for my new bike yesterday. The first is that upon measuring my hands I was told they were ‘medium’ sized. Medium? No man likes to have his hand size downplayed. We all know how the expression goes: big hands, big... actually I’m not sure that is a particularly well known expression at all.

The other problem I have with MSG bikes is that there is not a similar shop nearer to me as I could have spent hours in there and gladly ridden every bike they had in stock.
