So I cleaned and lubed my 2007 bike. I rode it like 3 times in the last 10 years. I went on a ride today and it was very hard to keep a "elbows bent" position. Is my core too weak? When I use the drop bars it's comfortable. When I use the hoods I feel like I need to straighten my arms and brace myself against the handlebar or else my body will just drop down. I played around a little with the saddle height and forward/back position, but it didn't help too much with the pressure on my arms.
