This past week I've been experiencing a great deal of pain on the outside of my right knee right on the epicondyle. Since I never experienced this on my mountain bike is this a fit problem & if so what suggestions do any of you have?

thanks
It sounds like the seat is at the wrong height. I'd start with lowering the seat a bit. Start off with small adjustments until you find the right spot for you. If that doesn't help try raising it, but it more likely to be a seat that's too high.
