What change could resolve this inwards bent of my elbows or is my pain related to sth. else?
Hi,Welcome to BF!
hope you enjoy your time here, get some info, and give some...
Re your Q, bold above.
I would interpret your 'condition' is only possible if you straightarm / lock your elbows...an 'A Frame' posture ...
my suggestion - here, from a previous post - about good riding posture and attaining a greater level of comfort... with images ...
