Handlebars - Try grips on the handlebars so you’re more stable.

Clothing - If you’re getting sore riding, try changing up your clothes to help.

Change - If you’ve changed your clothing and saddle height or tilt and you’re still sore, try changing your saddle all together.

Bike health - Make sure your bike is in working condition otherwise you might be putting in more work than you need to be.
