There is an "un-authorized" adjustment that made a huge difference to me:

Remove the bars from the base and there will be two locator metal dowel pins for each side. Pull-out the outboard pins. They are very snug and it will take some work. A heat lamp on the base with an ice cube on the pin will prep it nicely for the removal. Now with 2 of the 4 pins removed, re-assemble everything. Except this time you can now adjust the angle of the bars that cause your elbows to tuck-in too much. Spread the bars apart just slightly from the stock position and finish torquing down the bolts. Wa La! The wrist position is now comfortable!

 
Careful wif dem bars Eugene.....if removing those pins that is...nice and snug. :aarambo: PM. <><
