Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After owning this slightly more than a year (and mistakenly giving it a 4 star review early on), I can say that selling this POS is borderline fraud. It might be reasonable for someone who only intends to use it briefly a couple days a week, and for not more than 3 months. I used it daily for 70-80 minutes; after 3 months, the bearing insert in the hub on the flywheel wears out and the flywheel starts chattering. Took off the cowling over the drive belt to see a pile of metal dust. After pulling the fly wheel, it was obvious the bearing on the hub/drive belt side of the flywheel had worn down the hub. So bladez sent me a new flywheel with new bearings installed. However, they provide no instructions on reinstalling the much too tight drive belt, so I had to get a service tech to come out...after waiting a month. The 1st tech knew nothing about the bike, and couldn't reassemble it. So after another month, they sent another tech, who managed to get it reassembled with my supervision and help. Well, its been 4 months, and guess what, the flywheel is chucking, and the hub has worn out again. Of course its now off warranty, so I have a $400 door stop. The price has dropped 25%, and its still a rip off.
