>>1599508I'm a little worried because of my knee, it does not seem to be related to the bike, but im not sure, and i can't trust the bike shops here for a bike fix because they suck really really hard, the more i learn about bike repair the more i feel scammed by those fuckers, and i already tried 3 different shops here, the first two were scammers, charging 20 bucks for a puncture, which was caused by a spoke going to deep on the rim, and them charging more 20 bucks the other day, to fix the same puncture, without fixing the spoke. ( was just starting cycling at this point, and had no idea how any of that worked), or fixing a derailleur that got mangled with the spokes on the second day riding the bike, for which they simply said "not my problem, wanna buy another one?".
>>1599545im worried about the knee, i don't fell uncomfortable on my back or my arms, it is only the knee, but i do firmly believe that my saddle is well adjusted.
I'm really sad for not being able to ride like i used too, i can still make a confy ride around town, but anything more than a 15km long ride and it starts to hurt rather bad.
there is a smaller bike here at my home, it belongs to my dad but im sure he would let me try it out, gonna try and see if i can fell any difference.
ty a lot for the answers bros i know this is not the thread for this but yeah, im really sad because of this all, a little afraid i won't be able to ride the way i like anymore, went for a ride yesterday night, only 18 km and when i got back home it was hard to walk my bike to its little stand.
