I'm 55 and have developed some mild knee-cap pain riding my hybrid to and from work. I'm looking into adjusting the bike fit, nsaids, stretching, knee specific exercise, etc., but wonder if those knee support bands that I've occasionally seen but never paid attention to would help. Has anyone got experience with these? Where do you get them?

What sort of pain and where on the knee? It could be something simple.
It's a very mild ache just under the knee-cap. The pain doesn't bother me so much - it's the new clicking noises that I've never had before and the tightened feeling in my quads and gastros that bothers me as much as anything.

These Cho-Pat straps help when the patella isn't tracking correclty in its slot. My knee clicks from time to time when I cross my legs and uncross them. My ortho doc says that a click sound in the knee is always the knee cap.
