Schwinn Airdyne

Schwinn created the ultimate exercise machine, when they put the Schwinn Airdyne Exercise bike on the market in the late 1970's. It has since become the most common form of fitness as far as exercise bikes. The Airdyne has no resistance parts, and gets all its resistance from air.

These bikes have been around since the late 70's and since that time replacement parts have remained basically the same. They still use wedge pins in the crank arms, and a two crank system with a left and right eccentric arm. The grips have remained the same as well as the connecting arms, pivot bolts and lever arms.

We carry all the airdyne parts you will need to maintain and fix your Schwinn model AD-2, and AD-6 Airdyne Exerciser. Since 2014 They have come out with several newer models, the AD-6, the Airdyne 2 and AD Pro all of which we carry parts for.

We not only carry repair items for exercisers but we know how to fix them and have available the nuts, lockwashers and oilite bearings, and chains you will need when you repair your equipment. Please feel free to call us at +1 (410) 859-3538

Bowflex Motivator

Bowflex Motivator & Motivator 2 Home Gym: Simple Design, Serious Results

The Bowflex Motivator and Motivator 2 bring Bowflex’s signature polymer resistance technology into a streamlined, space-saving package built for home use. With fewer attachments and a smaller footprint than premium models, the Motivator series delivers a straightforward, no-fuss workout that’s perfect for beginners, busy professionals, and anyone craving an easy path to better fitness without cluttering the living room.

Why Choose the Bowflex Motivator Series?

  • Compact Footprint: At just 7′ L × 3′ W × 7′ H, the Motivator fits neatly into apartments, dens, or spare bedrooms.
  • Easy Assembly & Storage: With minimal parts and a fold-flat bench, setup is quick and cleanup is even easier.
  • Low Learning Curve: Intuitive design—snap in a rod, grab the handles, and start pressing or pulling.
  • Quiet Operation: No clanking plates or metal chains—just smooth, whisper-quiet resistance rods.

Power Rod Technology: The Heart of the Motivator

Unlike weight-stack gyms, the Motivator uses Bowflex power rods—flexible polymer rods engineered to bend under load, providing progressive resistance through both concentric and eccentric phases. Standard models ship with 210 lb resistance (12 rods × 17.5 lb each) and do not offer rod upgrades, making this series perfect for home users who want a complete, all-in-one solution without extra purchases.

Full-Body Exercise Options

Despite its simplicity, the Motivator lets you target every muscle group through a core set of movements:

  • Chest Press & Fly: Push and squeeze to sculpt pecs and shoulders.
  • Lat Pulldown & Low Row: Work your back with smooth, controlled pulls.
  • Leg Extension & Leg Curl: Strengthen quads and hamstrings with the built-in leg station.
  • Squat Station: Use the base-mounted squat attachment for glutes and quads.
  • Cable Curl & Tricep Press: Grip the cables for arm-sculpting biceps and triceps.
  • Ab Crunch: Engage core muscles by pivoting against rod tension.

Maintaining Your Motivator: Bowflex Parts & Replacements

Even the toughest polymer rods and cable assemblies need occasional TLC. Krislynn Cycle & Fitness carries all the genuine Bowflex replacement parts you’ll ever need:

  • Power Rod Replacement: Swap out fatigued rods in minutes—no tools required.
  • Bowflex Power Rod Replacement Set: Renew all 12 rods at once for balanced resistance.
  • Pulleys & Bearings: Replace worn assemblies to restore silky-smooth cable travel.
  • Cables & Shanks: High-strength cables with factory fittings for safe operation.
  • End Caps & Mounts: Secure rods and attachments firmly in place.
  • Bench Rollers & Foot Pads: Keep bench and leg stations stable under load.

How to Replace a Bowflex Power Rod

  1. Turn off any electronic consoles and ensure the machine is stationary.
  2. Grasp the end cap on the worn rod and pull straight out of the rod base.
  3. Align the arrow on the new 5 lb/17.5 lb Bowflex rod with the slot in the base.
  4. Press until you hear a click—confirm the rod is locked securely.
  5. Test by flexing gently; you should feel smooth, even resistance.

Maintenance Tips for Longevity

  • Wipe Down: Remove sweat and dust from rods and frame after each use.
  • Inspect Regularly: Check rods for cracks and cables for fraying monthly.
  • Lubricate Pulleys: Apply silicone spray every 3–6 months to reduce wear.
  • Rotate Rods: If certain exercises see heavier use, swap rod positions periodically to equalize fatigue.
  • Avoid Heat Exposure: Don’t place your Motivator near radiators or direct sunlight—excessive heat can warp rods.

Why Genuine Parts Matter

Aftermarket alternatives may seem cost-effective, but only authentic Bowflex parts deliver the performance and safety you need:

  • Exact Fit: OEM tolerances guarantee easy installation and wobble-free use.
  • Durability: Polymer rods rated for thousands of flex cycles without losing tension.
  • Warranty Protection: Preserves any remaining coverage from Nautilus, Inc.
  • Consistent Resistance: Restore the progressive tension profile Bowflex designed.
