    After extensive use of my Gist Fuild ride over winter I noticed last week that

    1. Resistance has dropped alot
    2. It is cool to the touch even after 40 minutes of hard going.

    Do you need to replace the oil in this , if so what with .

    Planning to open in up at the weekend to see if the fins inside have become dislodged


    Anyone have any similar issues to this and How did they fix it

    thanks

    Sounds like some fluid has leaked out. Not sure if these are servicable.

    I would have thought fluid leaking out would be pretty obvious. Any sticky puddles? How big is the fluid chamber?

    Holds about 1 litre. Full when I opened it so none leaked out

    Yep. Fins so. No idea if it's servicable...

    Stripped and fixed last night

    Nut fixing the fin wheel to the roller had come loose

    Messy job with the oil but apart from that all OK

    Just checking it to make sure I didn't cause a leak now
