Chain Lube
I find there is something quite satisfying when you've taken the time to lube your chain. Especially when it coincides with a firmware update and ergdata update.
Anyone else get that?

Re: Spiking stroke rate even after PM5 replacement
I've had this and as Jon says; for me, it was down to technique.

Re: Pushing off, heel, toes or neither?
That sounds interesting. Would you be able to post some pictures please? Thanks. This was the inspiration: http://www.ps-sport.net/SwingSling.htm which is a "cleaner" way of doing it. but apparently the forum's image allowances are quite small - even with img tags, so here's the urls instead - it "...

Re: Pushing off, heel, toes or neither?
Thanks so much everyone. I've put the insoles back in my Reebok trainers to make them more snug. That seems to be working for now. I do like the idea of rowing in stocking feet, but for now I'll stick with the trainers. I do like the look of those five finger shoes. So expensive though. Happy erging...

Re: Pushing off, heel, toes or neither?
Thanks everyone. I knew I wouldn't be the only one. My heels are boney. I've tried wrapping the cups with flannel and wearing hiking socks and that helps quite a bit. The sling idea sound great though.

Re: Pushing off, heel, toes or neither?
I found that I was losing power wearing a set of sketchers - after trailing some no shoes rowing - but I didn't want to go out and buy a new set of shoes just for the erg - knowing just how sweaty they'd become too. Like you - the heel cup rubs my heels; even wrapped and with socks - my bones back ...

Pushing off, heel, toes or neither?
Hi, I periodically get blisters from rowing. I usually wear running type trainers. Although have found that my squash type trainers are irritating me at the moment too. Through experimentation, I notice that there is less heel movement when I push through the heel. Perhaps that is the correct techni...

Re: Chain twitch during drive on new RowErg
I get a click through my handle. It is definitely coming from the swivel. You may find you can replicate it at slower speeds if you roll your wrists back slightly at the end of the pull. My chain is recent and from new there were very slight left to right variances. I think that’s normal, within tol...

Re: Servicing - North East, United Kingdom
Hi Ian, there isn’t much you can’t do yourself. I have a 20 year old model C and I’ve replaced my chain, seat and seat rollers, chain and guide pulleys, sprocket, axle bearings, bungee cord, handle and monitor and monitor cord. It’s all fairly straight forward. I imagine it would cost quite a bit to...

Is the op referring to the plastic strips on the sprocket?

Re: New chain - more effort?
Thanks! Where do I select the model on the pm5? I updated my pm5 firmware to the latest version when I changed the chains & sprocket. I don’t know if that would have changed anything. My model d has always been 51/2 for df 20 on the display df screen. Thanks for the you tube link! All the best! You...
