Has any one had a problem with the Resistence beging to much at level 1?

I just purchased this product, have a good level of fitness and find level 1 challenging after 10 minutes. Forget any level higher.

No, but if you use it without turning on the display monitor, it's easier than level 1.

I have had no problem with the resistence at level 1, or any other level. I am 100% satisfied with the RC-30.

Yes. I am recovering from foot surgery and need to start out with less resistance. Even my construction worker husband thinks it is too difficult as you cant work through any of the programs without it being too difficult

No problems. However if you have a weakened strength then you may need to use it a few times to increase your strength andability.

Sorry but I have no idea since I gave it to my granddaughter and she or her parents haven't had that problem come up yet as far as I know. Would the company site have an answer?

I have never had any problems but the initial setting are crucial to make sure that there is never such an issue. If you start off at a lesser incline and adjust your heighth setting you should never have any troubles alone.

Everyone has a different tolerence level. It took me 3 days to get use to the feeling, now I only use level 9; its the recomnended level for the best results anyway. I'm no expert but I dont think there's anything wrong with starting on level 9.

Sorry, but I am unable to give you an answer since I have not experienced the problem you are having.

Even at the lowest setting for resistance, the machine has a lot of resistance. It does ease up a bit after using.

I had issues with mine for a while, I would always have to get on at least twice! The first always gave me a much higher reading, the second was usually correct. I has now straighted out. hope it stays that way.

I had that problem intermittently too. I search forums and that along with the fan speed only working at high or low velocity were indicators of a bad resistor.

I also had trouble at first - but suddenly the hydraulics started working. You do have to press pretty hard to make it go to the level you want.

Hi JT. Sorry is quite some time ago. Don't recall that I had a problem. Good luck.

Yikes, sorry to hear that. I rarely have that problem and this meter takes less blood than my last one.Good luck.

Greg said about it meeting resistance. If you stop there you are the problem. Push it a little further and make sure it is seated properly. If you still have the problem get it replaced.

Sorry , I did mean to hit send , anyway the resistance is not the same so you run the rusk of overheating and this could definitely cause a number of problems. However, I am not an expert in this area, so I'm just talking from reading and experience. Hope this helps.

I have just started using the bike... and I find that if I just don't use any of the aerobic options and just stay steady with it at one, it's okay. I don't believe you can get the resistance any lower, but you can build up your strength using level 1 until ready to start using the workout aerobic trainers. I don't choose anything... when I get on the bike I just start to petal... and let it stay neutral like I'm on a level terrain track. I can only do 10 min at a time right now.

I have had absolutely no problems. May be it is because I do not use it often.

April, when i first got it i had problems connecting, what i found out it was the timing on my part. i cannot recall exactly what sequence i was having problems with but i recall not pressing something long enough to get the next step to come up, i was rushing. go through the steps again slowly and pay attention to how you do each step. Deep breaths and persistance. It will pay off.
