NordicTrack - Brontobldr
I purchased a used Nordic Track AudioRider R400 exercise bike. The eddy axle assembly bearing failed after a time but the replacement part could only be ordered as a $932 assembly.
I replaced the bearing, from the American manufacturer, at a cost of $17.95, plus a huge investment in effort. The machine had been built with an interference fit and could not be disassembled without braking it apart, which was verified after it was finally apart.
The operators manual is completely inadequate for disassembly, repair and maintenance. This is a classic example of having a product manufactured in China and not being supported.
Monetary Loss: $18.

THE PART # SHOULD BE STAMPED ON END OF BEARING. THE OLD BEARING WILL HAVE TO BE PRESSED OUT AND THE NEW PRESSED IN.
Have exactly the same problem! Would appreciate information on supplier with parts to fix the broken clutch pulley, with one way drive bearing... wingfoot@***.net
