I had one when I used to ride metrics long time ago.
It's easy to put on, but I found that it gets in the way most of the time
esp if you wear gloves. It catches my jacket sleeve and the cuffs of the gloves. I took it off.

I have one, it does help relax your grip some so your hand doesn't fatigue as easy. Around town I find it not so useful, I just rotate it forward so it doesn't get in the way. There are 2 types, the regular and the wide, I use the regular.
I would recommend it if you like riding long distances.

so maybe just take it off around town? my buddy has a wide one and he seems to use his even around town- it sounds like a great idea for road trips. sounds like I better try this thing out!

I use it on both bikes, use them everywhere. Started using them when I had a flareup of arthritis in 08, still using them.

I use one of these - not in the way in the city, accessible when I need it. They can be found for less money on e-Bay
