PM3 115 drag factor when damper at 10

Post by enuenu » January 8th, 2021, 11:11 am

On a PM3 Concept 2 and damper set to 10. I check the drag factor and it is only 115. My research indicates a 115 drag factor would normally to be achieved with the damper at 3-5. I can't get to the drag factor of 130 I want.

Welcome to the forum. Yep, sounds like a mouse got in there, built a nest & had a passel of young'uns. :D Best do as Dougie says & clean her out. Then see what your drag factor is.

Thanks. It's at the local gym. I'll speak to the manager.
