I have put about 450km on the Norco.
Lately however I have felt pain in my legs while riding... Am I getting old? (rhetorical... no comments)
Have I somehow over done it? (keep in mind I'm smoking a cigarette & having a beer while writing this) Perhaps some old football injury? (all that bench warming time finally catching up to me)
Apparently... seat positioning could be the cause. I adjusted the seat just like anybody would, for comfort. Well... after speaking to some experts... (guy at work who's biked longer than me)
Just having the seat a few millimeters different from what I had on the Supercycle... could cause this. So I've lowered it a bit & moved it back some... we shall see.
Haven't forgotten the Supercycle...
I bought a new (second hand) shifter. I will get new tire and inner tube over the weekend... maybe next week the repairs will begin.

Ok... moving the seat back... bad idea... my knees hurt. Let's try forward.
Here's a site with very simple instructions for setting saddle height. http://www.ehow.com/how_14103_determine-correct-saddle.html.
Pain in the front of the knee? Saddle too low. Pain at the back of the knee? Saddle too high.
Thanks... I seem to have sorted it out... but I will take look.
