Keiser M3 Spin sound

Hey all,

Don't know if this is the right place to post but my Keiser is making an odd noise. I made this video. Does it sound like a bad bearing or belt?

I have no idea what a Keiser M3 is.
However, to locate a bad bearing, you need to make yourself a listening device. Any stick, even a long screwdriver will do. Please the one end of the stick where the bearing is and the other against your ear. Now get a helper to spin up/fire /up/ignite the Keiser and listen to the bearing. A bad bearing rumbles whilst a good bearing whooshes.
If you are a doctor, just use your stethoscope.

I actually have a stethoscope .. and yes it is a indoor spin bike. I will give that a try, thanks!

I've never had a real stethoscope to try it with, so you may have to put a piece of wood (like a dowel or something) on the bearing area and the stethoscope against that. A mechanic's stethoscope has an aluminium rod in place of the ice-cold disc.

My Keiser cycle is making the exact same sound. Did you ever find the source or a way to fix it?
