      I cringe watching someone struggling to turn the pedals when they are riding a multi geared bike.

      Cycling is good for the knees, if you’re not staining to turn the pedals. That’s why gearing exists.

      Use the gears to make the pedaling easier.

        Also to add, the seat height should be adjusted such that your leg is just under full extension when on the pedal at its lowest point. Otherwise you are wasting a ton of power with every stroke, and will feel it in your knees much quicker.

      Wait a minute internet dude, did you make sure your seat was the right height? Having the seat at the right height I.e. fully extended legs, the down like an inch, really helped me out with the joint pain. I mention it because biking is generally considered a low impact activity. Knee surgery haver here, myself :')
