I finally had got the saddle adjusted just right on my MTB and then it went in for a service and was moved (stupid me forgot to mark it).
I got it back to where I thought it was before (using my previous pedal stroke as a guide), but the last few rides I've noticed that my legs hurt - the lower band of muscle running above the knee, but not the knee itself.
I also noticed that as my fitness is increasing, I have been using higher gears. I don't tend to stand on the pedals uphill as my balance isn't reliable, (I have Dyspraxia) so I stay seated.
So, could it be the saddle height being just a bit off or the fact I don't stand (never had trouble before) when pedalling uphill?
Thoughts please!
