Thanks--I have a mark where it WAS, but now that I think it's feeling good I'll mark it here as well. I suppose it could have slipped some. But as I say, I never gave it much thought, the guy at the LBS just eyeballed me on it in street clothes the day I bought it, and off I went. So perhaps some slipping combined with being a tad low to begin with and the cumulative effect on my knee just eventually kicked in.
