Hello :smile: after recently going clipless I have noticed I get a pain in the front of my knee after about 10 miles I have read that this means my seat is to low. I looked on the Internet to see how much it was to have it professionally fit and found a place in Worsley that does it and they want £60 this is a lot of money for me as I'm only an apprentice is it worth doing ? Or should I just try and do it myself?

If this only happened following changing to clipless pedals, then the clues suggest that maybe your cleat's are not positioned optimally. Have a search for guides on how to position your cleats. It may take some trial and error.

Are your feet clipped to the pedals in their natural posture or are the cleats forcing them into a straight ahead position?

Sit on a table with your legs dangling and note the angle between your feet. They should be roughly the same on the bike.
