You should definitively buy cycling gloves. A friend of mine had same
problem and wanted to change his grips but the guy at the LBS told him that
he should buy gloves instead. He did and the problem is gone.
I have both, the gloves and the bar-ends on my MTB. The bar-ends, in
addition to be a must on steep cross-coutry climbs, are very usefull on long
flat bike path rides as they allow me to position my hands differently when
I don't need to have them constantly on the brake levers.

I have a trek 820 and frequently after my rides my wrists are killing
me.
I want to replace my stock grips with some better ones. Please
recommend a set of grips with superior comfort and most importantly
shock absorption.
My bike is used for communiting, not racing or off-roading.
thanks
