My knees are in serious pain right now; It hurts climbing and descending stairs. I ride with a front brake and ride 52:19, which I gather to be a pretty small gear from what you guys say. Are you all overcompensating for something or should I switch to a smaller gear? I'm thinking going to 42:17 which is like -4 in. Maybe I should grow some nuts, I don't know.
