The Death Of Our Echo Bike | Rogue Echo Bike Repair

3:35 how did you get that bolt out? It is very strong on mine.

[@soggywafflesmedia]

I had to stand on the hex wrench to break the bolt free on a couple of our bikes. The The crank will try to spin on you. I prevented that by standing on the pedal I wasn't working on. It wasn't pretty but it got the job done.

[@cngz3.3]

@@soggywafflesmedia wish you did record that part as well:) so the bolt goes free as normal right? Counter-clockwise? Nothing weird because it is the left crank I hope.

Amazing Rogue Support just send me this video. If anyone find themselves in this video and wondering how to that part here is how. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJibZ6KpZrp_bMkfeature=shared

Pinning this lovely comment to the top. Glad you got what you need!

Sweet! I just ordered one this week and it's good to see that they're designed well.

[@soggywafflesmedia]

It’s a solid addition to any fitness collection! 💪

Great maintenance video, nice step-by-step. The only thing I would encourage is the use of “BLUE” Lock-Tite (thread locker) as you most most assuredly disassemble at a later time (if needed). The “RED” Lock-Tite is really strong(!), making disassembly very challenging.

[@soggywafflesmedia]

Your words are too true. I hit it with the blue Lock-Tite a few months later.

Can i ask if this kept happening to you after this - we had the same issue but it kept happening, ended up snapping at that crank bolt 😞

[@soggywafflesmedia]

Oh dang that sucks…. I have one that needs to be tightened I am not sure if it is the same one.

[@pstaramos]

m8 to begin THANK YOU! I didnt find anything about that problem until now. I have exactly the same problem, i figured it out like you and did the same. BUT, the bolt keeps loosening. How far did you apply the threadlock? I think maybe the threadlock wasnt strong enough or we tested it too soon and it didnt had time to cure. Also about the belt, mine started to slip on the first pedal when i try it beat my 10 or 20 cals time, if i apply 1500watts or more. Does the bolt you used to adjust the fan tensions the belt??

[@soggywafflesmedia]

1. Yes that both will let you tension the belt. That is exactly what it is for. 2. The thread lock should hold no matter what. On one of our bikes I had to take every bolt off the pedal assembly and thread lock it and put it back together to get it to stop. So maybe give it another shot. Also I tightened the ever living hell out of the bolts. This is not a recommendation...just what I did.

[@CourageInAction1949]

Great video! No problems with the belt? Some gym owners say no problems with the belt and others do. Your thoughts?

[@soggywafflesmedia]

Interesting. We have not had any issues with the belt. I’m curious, what were some of the problem? I could see over time the belt getting loose/stretched. So you would need to reset the tension bolts. Similar to a serpentine belt on a car.

[@ohplezz]

Where did you get the shark mouth and eye from?? It looks badazz.

[@soggywafflesmedia]

A member at our gym made them for us. They are currently made out of balsa wood with a sticker on top. It was a lovely surprise!

[@Modi-Drink-Moot]

Mine got delivered today n its absolutely a beast of a machine probably the best out there saying that the seat was a bit uncomfortable hurt my ass too much my big hairy brown ass

[@soggywafflesmedia]

Haha, the seats are pretty jank. We have had some asses destroy them. The good news is you can go and buy any nice bicycle seat and replace it really easily.

[@Modi-Drink-Moot]

@@soggywafflesmedia we can put any bicycle seat on it?

[@soggywafflesmedia]

Yeah, I put a spare mountain bike seat on ours that I had laying around. It actually helped our shorter people because it cut down the seat height by about 2 inches.

[@Modi-Drink-Moot]

@@soggywafflesmedia oh OK thanks for that I will be buying a very comfortable one now as this one is too hard but I will wait 2 weeks or so as it might need breaking in

[@joeymccollom]

I was too invested in this considering I don’t own an echo bike…

[@soggywafflesmedia]

Seeing how things work is the absolute best way to pass time.
