(sorry about the blank post)

I recently bought a cannondale road bike after my fisher mtb was stolen (while
i was riding it no less).  Last week i started experiencing arthritic-like
pain in my knees that i believe is due to cycling.  My fisher had biopace
chain rings and my cannondale does not.  I 've heard that biopace has been
the *cause* of knee pain for some but i'm wondering if anyone has ever 
experienced the reverse effect (i.e. no problems with biopace but problems
without it).  I also would like to know if anybody can suggest another 
possible reason for my knee-aches (i.e. change in frame geometries from
mtb to road bike).  I've been off the bike for about a week now and my
knees are feeling better but i want back on.

thanks in advance
