I wonder if any of you "mega milers" have experienced any hand tendon disease problems and if you have a successful solution short of surgery.

I really don't know if this is a cycling related problem or not, but I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has or had the problem of fingers curling towards the palm. Right now for me, it is difficult to get cycling gloves on and to move the hands around the bar without catching a finger on the cable housing.

Thanks,
