“Poorly built piece of junk”
This is a poorly built piece of junk. I purchased it today and assembled it in about 1 hr.
The fit and finish is beyond bad. The welds on the main frame look like a junior high shop class project. After putting the bike together I tried for over 1 hour to get it to work. I had to partially dis assemble the flywheel shield to adjust the reed switch pick up to make the display do anything. This is apparently a common problem because it is covered in the owners manual under troubleshooting. Upon disassemly I found the switch wasn't even close to being adjusted properly, not that you would know it by the poor instructions in the owners manual. Once I got that fixed and reassembled the bike I found the instructions lacking for operation and use. All in all I'm very unhappy with this unit and will disassemble it and bring it back to sears. I should have spent the extra dough for the ProForm unit I was looking at. I"ve learned. If you buy this piece of junk you will regret it.
