• Have you recently started riding further/for longer? I usually get a sore neck when I come out of winter hibernation and start doing more miles. It gradually improves as I adapt to the extra time spent on the bike

  • Well, I recently broke last year's record of 0km on that bike by doing 18km today.

    But it's a perennial issue. If I ride the bike more often I guess my neck strengthens up a bit and it's manageable. But any time I exceed what I'm used to it bothers my neck.

    Do the guys with the slammed stems not get this issue?

    That's been my rather simplistic approach. Occasionally sitting up to relieve any aches helps too. Does it only happen while you're riding, or does the pain carry on for some time after?

    The pros, or those with the massive mamil headtubes?*

    *yes, i have seen my own bikes
