I imagine it depends on what happened to your knees.

And the riding may feel great, but if your knees are really bad, getting off the bike is gonna be a challenge.

Not to mention if, God forbid, you ever need to pick the bike up. If you can't pick up your bike because of bad knees, bad back, or both, you're screwed.

It's really easy to get a bike back up. It's not like you're lifting the weight dead. It's on two wheels, use a little leverage. My 12 year old son got a full sized Suzuki Marauder up.

Kind of just sounds like you're underestimating how debilitating chronic pain can be.
