The lock on the top tube looks like it could rub against the inside of you leg when you pedal. Anyone have that problem?

It's never been an issue for me. It lies flat enough to stay out of the way.

the only issue I've had that is if you tie your bike chain around that area and peddle, you'll get tangled. I've had no issues with rubbing

It's normal. The rails don't always match perfectly. It happens on my machine all the time. You get used to itI should say that mine is a slight but noticeable bump though nothing that would interrupt my workouts. If yours is significant, check to make sure everything is locked down and if not, contact Bayou Fitness.

I got my frame back in November 2013, there is still a "problem" with the seat post slipping....but I just cranked on it with an allen key and it holds fine. I'm not afraid to use a little muscle and that seems to work. once tight I have not had ANY ISSUES!!!

No it's smooth and silent. I hate squeaky anything anywhere and my bike is no exception. Amazing pedals but watch your shins!

No. I've never had that problem. But bikes can tend to swing when you're driving on highway. As long as you secure your pedals you'll be ok.

If your seat going inside a tube on the bike, it is going to fix. If your seat has four screws an nuts to asembler, is not going to fix. For me it's very confortable seat.

Nope, it sounds like your pedal is faulty and needs to be replaced/fixed. Send it back.

i had the same problem so i had it brought it to the bike shop. i share all the sentiments of michael b. not only that, the seat is very stiff and provides a very uncomfortable ride. i can only last a few minutes. the bike is hardly used.

My bike has no quick release either, and I haven't had any issues. I'm not pedaling fast, though, so take that into consideration. :)

OMG I have this exact same problem. I thought it was something I did "wrong".Yes I keep tripping over it and it has become a hazard, such as when carrying hot liquids for example.And annoying to boot.

I don't have a problem with it but I do remember having to tighten it pretty tight. That said, it is not a comfy seat to begin with. I would recommend going to a bike and get a good one. That's what I am doing.

Unless you have back problems as I do you would probably enjoy this bike with the seat as it is. It just so happens the design strikes me right in the lower lumbar area in the very spot where rods were inserted a few years ago. My answer for the problem was to simply put a small pillow at a higher point on the back so it prevents contact with the seat back. Works fine. I might add; over the years I have used recumbent bikes (and other equipment) in gyms and find this one well worth the cost I paid. I expect many years of use.

Yes, I just got my bike and the seat wobbles a lot. I crammed some cardbd in where it appeared to be wobbling, but it only improved a bit. Does anyone have any suggestions???

It does but being such a fat lock, it really gets in the way of pedalling. I've always just carried it in my bag. Great lock don't get me wrong.

there is a little insert button on the front of the main body that houses the cycling part of the machine. How do you like your bike? I am missing my left leg and I still ride all summer long and it is nice to have something to do to keep me exercising throughout the winter. This bike is almost effortless and for a person in a lot of pain 5 years after my amputation this is a treat to ride.
