Hi
Over the last couple of weeks, I developed some pain at the back of my knee and hamstring to the point where I have to get off my bike and rest for 5mins or so. The pain usually kicks in after 10-15miles into the ride. Once I take the break I can go again for another 15 miles miles. Sometimes I can even go further without real pain although there is still a slight discomfort but its manageable.
Today I realised that I find myself sitting at the edge of the saddle a lot. So I purposely sat further back. Which may be eased the pain a little, but then without realising I ended up sitting at the edge again. So hard to tell from today's ride. But did not have any big pain to the point where I would have to stop.
The pain only occurs on one side of the leg(left). Back of the knee and hamstring.
I have not had this issue before up until recently.
I adjusted the saddle height, so it's the right height.
Before I even tried lowering but it did not help.
At this moment I am thinking that it could be my sitting position. ( which I will experiment in the next ride)
If anyone knows a solution to my problem please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
