I agree with the posts above. I too suffer from numb hands after about an hour. I found the biggest issue was having bent wrists, especially after riding for extended periods and getting tired, you would relax your stance and bend your wrists more. I rolled my brake and gear levers further...

I recommend www.myus.com also. I've got a few items shipped over from the states. (Not a frame though).

Have you tried adjusting your seat height, position or even a different seat? I was having the same problem but after some tweaking of my seat it mostly went away. I recently picked up a new seat and did a four hour ride on the weekend and no numbness what so ever.

I've had two bikes with Lefty's and my brother in law has one too. I would highly recommend it. I've never had a problem with mine ("touch wood") but I know my brother had to get his rebuilt. I love the stiff lockout compared to other front forks. Hope that helps.
