| Why does my machine feel tight and not smooth like the ones I use at the gym? |
| asked by/C Kray|January 2009 |
| Our Answer |
| |
Our units feel tight because they have all new hardware and parts, including bearings, bushings, and drive belts, that need to be broken in. The units at the gym are used all day, every day, by people of various shapes and sizes, so they’re well broken in. In general, a 2-3 week break-in period is recommended for our equipment. |
| I noticed most spin bikes are serviced as opposed to being remanufactured; why? |
| asked by/M Maricela|April 2007 |
| Our Answer |
| |
Spin bikes are less complex in terms of electronics & mechanics, the process of refurbishing, as globalfitness defines it, doesn’t apply to the production process they undergo so they are considered serviced. In some cases, the spin bikes we receive are deemed in good enough condition to be sold as-is after a thorough inspection. |

| What’s the difference between spin bikes that are serviced and used? |
| asked by/P Farthing|July 2008 |
| Our Answer |
| Since spinning bikes operate in such harsh workout environments some of them can get to us in poor condition, these units are typically the ones that need to be refurbished. Others that we receive in better condition need only to be serviced in order to be in a condition good enough to be sold. Still others are in such good condition that after inspection they are earmarked to be sold as is. |
