Don't jump to conclusions too quickly. When I first got the Wahoo Kickr and Zwift my knees started to ache after a few months from the more intense cycling. I questioned and checked my saddle and cleat positions. It worried me enough to start another thread here about knee health. I no longer have any issues with my kness after a few weeks from when they started to hurt....I think my knees recovered and got stronger. It takes time to get stronger. It's not an overnight thing.
Surgery doesn't always solve the problem - a colleague who had gone through knee surgery from football still have issues with his kness.
If you're new to cycling - everything is gonna hurt. Everything. For awhile. Then when the aches are gone and you have found your fitness and feel virile you're gonna want to live longer just to cycle more.
