That doesn't add up and is not what others have experienced. Maybe they just weren't for you?
Are you saying that a slight incline on a gearing of 34 x 21 with 155s was killing your knees?
It can be better for knee problems/other problems because the range of movement is lowered due to the smaller circle.
