Re: Advice/insight needed on restoring a used Model D

Thanks guys, for all of the info/help! Because I am so limited with space, I do have to put it together, and then break it back down each time I row. (Hopefully it was designed to handle such frequent de- and re- attachment). So, I will keep my eye on the locking wheel, sekitori, and make sure that ...

Re: Advice/insight needed on restoring a used Model D

Thanks for the reply, Jack. The monitor seems to be in good shape (has worked fine so far without any issues). I'm pretty sure it needs a serious firmware update, though. I wasn't able to see the lifetime meters. It says that it is 'Ver 61' in the 'Utilities -> Product id' screen. I don't have any w...

Advice/insight needed on restoring a used Model D

Hi! I am extremely happy to say that I just purchased a used rower! I have been looking for what feels like years...and, in some ways, that isn't entirely an exaggeration. So, while stalking my local craigslist, I came across an ad for a used Model D. The asking price was $295. I emailed the seller ...

Re: Fluid rower vs C2 model D/E

Thanks, a lot, Seacow! I know exactly what you mean! Not that I can presently afford a brand new machine, but, looking at the listings for used Model Ds (and even Cs sometimes believe it or not!), it's hard to see the benefit in buying (one of those) used. Of course, generally speaking, the C models...

Re: Fluid rower vs C2 model D/E

Seacow, I am very new to rowing..well, to be more accurate, I haven't actually even started yet. But it is an activity that I have wanted to get into since I was 12 or 13 years old. I am currently scouring CL for a good bargain on a Concept II, so that I can finally start rowing!! It's difficult to ...

Need help...good deal?

Hello. I am new to rowing, but have ALWAYS been highly interested in trying the sport. Recently I have been looking around for a used rower to get started. Yesterday I found an ad on CL for a Model B with a broken monitor. The ad said "best offer gets it." Long story short, I offered $75.00. The ad ...
