I have had some knee problems; some due to previous injuries. I was having unrelated pain down the frt. of both knees and it was suggested I move the seat forward. I couldn't believe the improvement 22 mm made.
I still have some pain below my lt. kneecap and a bit to the left. It was suggested in a bicycling e-mail group to move the clip reward for relief. Any suggestions or advice or a starting point. Hopefully someone knows what will help. I didn't have any problems until I recently changed bikes. I have them set-up as close to possible the same. Thanks. harley

Hi, I recently went to clipless and my knee started to bother me. I had never had a problem and didn't until very recently. Anyway, I read what Sheldon wrote about biking and pain: sheldonbrown.compain.htmlOpen ↗ I started paying attention to how I walk and how I pedal out of the clips. For me I adjusted them so that my heel is inward. No more knee pain, that solved it. My guess is that if you set them in such a way that is worse, it will seem unnatural, when pedaling. But remember, all I know, is based on my minimal experience. Good luck, Jeff
