Re: Model B Seat Roller Guide

Thank you for the insight of you and your associates. At the time I didn't base my comments on "your experience and just about everyone else you know." Though should I need such assistance in the future, I'll be certain to call upon you and just about everyone else you know . Who said anything about...

Re: Model B Seat Roller Guide

Based on my experiences with the model b and the concept 2 organization, I'd say that Antiques Roadshow is most definitely appropriate.

Re: Model B Seat Roller Guide

Collectors item? Clever.

I wasn't aware that it needed rebuilding when I purchased it.

Perhaps I could interest you in a fine collectible concept 2 model b.

Re: Model B Seat Roller Guide

There are at least two types of monorails for the model b: A chrome plated steel monorail or a stainless steel monorail. This version model b is an exception. The plastic seat guides are not to be found in on the model b parts page because this particular rower was a short run model that c2 produced...

Re: Model B With Twisted Chain

While it may be possible to separate the links with a chain tool, a bicycle chain link tool will not work as it is too large for the Concept 2 rower chain. So lacking the appropriate size chain tool the only solution is to replace the chain. Sounds simple, oui? Unfortunately model b's are notoriousl...

Re: Model B Seat Roller Guide

Yes, I've already looked through the Model B parts list and have found no reference to said roller guide. The rollers themselves are stainless steel that ride on the vinyl tracks; one on both the top and bottom of the slide rail. The slide rail itself is neither plated nor stainless steel, it is pai...

Model B Seat Roller Guide

I have a version of a Model B for which I can find no reference. The seat bearings roll on a molded vinyl track (both top and bottom) that keep the wheels inline on the rail. I need to replace both vinyl tracks. There are no parts listings for this or images. Does anyone have any insight?

Model B With Twisted Chain

I have a Model B with what appears to be a twisted chain section at about the catch position (or two feet from the handle). I'm wondering if there is a fix for this or if I am able to remove, say a six inch section of chain in order to cure the problem and still have enough chain to row normally.
