Preparation for biking - saebo-flex

In preparation for another biking attempt I thought I'd see what the Saebo-flex might do for being able to get my left hand off the handlebar in a hurry.  Once again I found out why I hate it so much. It is absolutely not built for stroke survivors to get on by themselves. Velcro that sticks to itself is almost impossible to untangle one-handed.  Bead chains are stupid for survivors.  Even with the maximum spring it was not enough to pull the fingers straight. I know that I was never the candidate for this, they took the easy way out and recommend it for those who only have penumbra damage to finger flexors. But it was the only finger orthotic out there and I just told my doctor I wanted a prescription for it, and damn their requirements. My co-pay was only 10%
