Great How-to video! My Echo bike just arrived about 20 minutes ago and this video explains the assembly very well. Thank you sir. It took about an hour start to finish, this video was spot-on .
Just got mine today. Pro tip: Rogue provides surprisingly decent tools, BUT to achieve proper torque especially on the arms, you'll need real 13mm socket, rachet & allen wrench, as to not strip the heads. Also, the foot pegs can go in hard, due to the fact they have lock tight on them.
Sat at home waiting for my bike watching vids like this, thank you for putting this together, building anything when new can be daunting, thanks to you, not anymore.
@@Birdiesandbombs hahaha yes! My friend ordered one too, just over a week ago, but his hasn't arrived yet. I guess that gives some sort of indication on time frames, despite the tracking info being available 😭
@@jrfty1 Ah man, mines still "being prepared for shipment". Thanks for letting me know, at least now I know I prob wont see it this week and can adjust my expectations accordingly. 🙌
Great video. I had trouble putting the handles on, and watched 10 seconds of your video on how they're supposed to be installed, and it worked. Thanks Bro!!!
I just did mine as detailed but there seems to a very little wiggle / movement in the handles with all the bolts installed. Is this normal ? I think you have the same in the video ?
Absolutely excellent video!! Stepping through it, it was easy to put the bike together. Can't imagine trying to do that without this video. Looked at other videos but this one is by far the best. Thanks!!
Makes me feel confident that I can assemble tge Echo. Was on the fence about the purchase of this reason. But now gonna pull the trigger. Thanks Nick! Great instructions.
Thanks for watching! It’s a great piece of equipment too I need to do a follow up video on how it’s held up. It’s been flawless, no durability issues at all.
Thanks for this video!! I was on the fence regarding purchase as I was not sure about assembly. I pulled the trigger after watching your video. Bike arrived in three days and with the help of your video assembly was a breeze! Much appreciated!!
That’s awesome you won’t regret buying this thing it’s held up like a beast since I filmed this! I’m probably going to do a follow up video at exactly 12 months so everyone can see how well it’s lasted
Hey...just curious. Did you actually get the machine from Rogue? Seems like they've been sold out for months. I just bought a brand new - in box on Ebay for $1,000. pkus $200 shipping. Can't wait for it to get here. I don't feel bad that I overpaid. Thanks....happy holidays.
@@Besokool I did see that unfortunately it’s been sold out for awhile now, hopefully it gets back in stock but sometimes people are selling them used too. Thanks for watching!
@@Besokool Yes. I ordered it and it arrived in three days! They are available now. They sold out last week for like 48 hours and then they were back in stock.
@@h.cknight2193 Oh boy. Well, I definitely paid way more than I had to then. I couldn't even find a phone number for Rogue to ask about avaliablity. But..I can't change it now. Looks like the Echo will be here Friday. My old Schwinn Airdyne Comp just broke last night, and I use it everyday for 40 minutes. Seems like this machine will far outlast any Schwinn product. At 58, hoping this one takes me to the end of my life.Thanks again..peace in the new year.
My bike is on the way and I am so glad I found thos vid so I know what to expect 👍 p.s. just a hint, when initially screwing in the screws, you can use the long end of the Allen Wrench in the head of the screw. With the short end on top, you should have enough clearance so you don't have to keep taking it out and putting it back in. Once it gets to the end, flip it around the way you have it in the vid so the long end gives you leverage needed to properly tighten 👍
Hey Nick! Great Video!. Thank you for making it. I have a Rogue Echo coming today and your video has been very helpful in what to expect. I plan on using it to assemble my Bike. Thank you again
Thanks for the video man Got mine today, was pretty easy to put together until I had problems with the handle alignment, which brought me to this video = problem fixed instantly Initial reaction from jumping on and off it for 10 minutes, finding the right height etc, it really smashes your quads The handles are nice and smooth to push/pull with, but the pedal to handle ratio in terms of effort used is around 3 to 1 or 4 to 1, a bit different to using a commercial crosstrainer which has a closer to a 1 to 1 effort ratio (pedals to handles) There seemed to be a little bit of seat wobble, but that has been well documented in other videos.
Exactly how it’s supposed to be done. However, taking it down a flight of steps to set up in the basement nearly broke my back. You make lifting it around a breeze.
Hey I haven’t seen a way to adjust that, I personally haven’t needed for that to happen. Wish I could’ve had a better answer for you sorry, thanks for watching!
Do you leave the washer and other thing with the peg when installing it into the arm? On ours you can shift the peg towards the bike and away. Doesn’t seem right.
Great video Nick. Thank you. Can any one help me to know the dimensions of the box? I need this information because I will have my echo bike shipped internationally by sea.
I just bought a Rogue Echo bike. The box arrived with holes and had visible damage. I called Rogue and sent them pics of the box and asked what I should do. They told me there had been a problem in transit. They told me to unbox and see if bike had any damage. I did and one of the arms had a big scratch. I sent them a pic. They gave me an option of crediting me $30 or a new arm. I didn't pay $900 to get a scratch and dent model. How would you have handled receiving a box that was visibly banged around with tears. and a scratched arm?
To keep the foot peg from spinning, place the spacer between the bolt head and the peg, NOT between the washer and the peg as it is shipped. Much better as a foot rest that way.
"Excellent video, thank you. Important tip from Boyd Morrison about placing the spacer between the bolt head and the foot peg so that the foot rests don’t spin."
I just did mine as detailed but there seems to a very little wiggle / movement in the handles with all the bolts installed. Is this normal ? I think you have the same wiggle in the video ? I have my lines triple checked and lined up.
Mine has a little but hasn’t seemed to affect the performance....I’ve been using it consistently several times a week since the video without any issues
I had some initial wobble in my arms. It was a side to side wobble. Loosen the foot pegs then TIGHTEN the 2 bolts on the front of the arm. And I mean REAAALLY tighten it. Don’t be afraid of stripping the bolts. It can take a LOT more. Then reinstall the foot pegs. And that should take care of the problem. No more wobbles whatsoever. Feels hella solid after this fix. It’s a common issue. Hope this helps!

I just set mine up today. It definitely wobbled in the beginning. I loosened up the pegs and the long arm screws, held the arm at an angle opposite direction of the wiggle and tightened the long arm screws first as tight as possible and lastly screwed the pegs tighter. It helps if someone can give the arm a little push as the screws are being fastened. No more wobble!
I had the same problem. Just got my bike, assembled it, arms wobbled, researched online the same problem and found a solution. It's basically a bolt tightening pattern. Once they're a little tight, switch one turn on each bolt until you can't tighten anymore. Problem solved.
@@rodoaguihugh Thank you so much! I just tried your solution and now the wobble is gone on both arms. You saved me a huge headache. I can't thank you enough!
Hey, so I can see in the video that it shipped UPS Ground - assuming this isn't freight. Did they ship these out same day if ordered by 3PM Eastern? Thank you
Hey man, great review, thanks! Could you help me out with a measurement please? Horizontal distance from the front tip of the flywheel cage to the rear of the seat runner? Thanks!
I’m pretty sure UPS dropped mine off as well, hopefully they can figure something out for you it’s a great machine. Thanks for watching I really appreciate it!
I just put my Echo Bike together - your video was super helpful. One question - should the foot pegs spin freely? No matter how much I tighten it still spins.
Excellent video, thank you. Important tip from Boyd Morrison about placing the spacer between the bolt head and the foot peg so that the foot rests don’t spin.
I’d say probably about 85 pounds. But that’s just an estimate. The arms are about 10 pounds each, and the other stuff is not so heavy. It took two of us to wrangle the main part up the stairs, but I’m old. Had to get my son to do the heavy lifting and I just kept it balanced as we went up.
I had trouble putting on the right arm,,,tried using grease,,, rubber mallet,,,then after 45 min of frustration wife stepped in,,, she reversed the position of the right arm (placed it backwards) got it to go on,,,then tried it the right way and bingo!!! Hope this made sense and can help someone else.
thanks for helping me put the bike together. is there a way to change the resistance on it? and should both arms move left/right slightly? It feels a bit flimsy, even though I've tightened everything up.
Yea same here. I just did mine as detailed but there seems to a very little wiggle / movement in the handles with all the bolts installed. Is this normal ? I think you have the same in the video ?

Doctor, after tightening down the arms, do you still feel a little back and forward slack in the handles when using the bike? Mine does, and I am at the point that I don’t want to tighten the arms any further.. Thanks
I get this too, must be normal, it's like a little slack before you push or pull and I swear I can't tighten anymore! Does you seat move slightly as well? Any tips?
Great video question my foot pegs when screwed in to the arms bolt seem to have play in it and the bolt doors protrude out a little is that normal . Seems to spin
Aamer Malik, hope you have figured it out by now. But in comments above, to keep the foot peg from spinning, place the spacer between the bolt head and the peg, NOT between the washer and peg as shipped. Hope this helps.
@@NickGalloDPT yep thanks for asking. Not sure of the calorie counter is accurate. It's an exhausting bit of kit. If I work hard I usually do 350 calories in a day. Very tiring.
I was wondering about the spinning feet pegs in the front. Why are they flexibel? What is the benefit? Is it possible to fix them? What are your thoughts on that. Honestly i see the danger to slip off if you are working out, you are exhausted as hell and want to put your feet on them. Any bad experience with the spinning pegs?

Got mine today, was pretty easy to put together until I had problems with the handle alignment, which brought me to this video = problem fixed instantly
Initial reaction from jumping on and off it for 10 minutes, finding the right height etc, it really smashes your quads
The handles are nice and smooth to push/pull with, but the pedal to handle ratio in terms of effort used is around 3 to 1 or 4 to 1, a bit different to using a commercial crosstrainer which has a closer to a 1 to 1 effort ratio (pedals to handles)

Try raising your seat height to reduce the workload on the quads

Would you say that the machine is too loud to be used in an apartment (neighboors getting disturbed by the sound)?
Do you leave the washer and other thing with the peg when installing it into the arm? On ours you can shift the peg towards the bike and away. Doesn’t seem right.
Great video Nick. Thank you. Can any one help me to know the dimensions of the box? I need this information because I will have my echo bike shipped internationally by sea.

Careful not to tighten too much. The plastic end of he peg broke! Fml lol
Thanks, it’s been driving me nuts. I’ll change it
The pegs are made that way for purpose, which is to enable you with the option of working out your arms alone.😁
Tx for the video. I just assembled yesterday and I noticed the foot rest moves a bit back and forth, is this normal so it will allow it to spin?
"Excellent video, thank you. Important tip from Boyd Morrison about placing the spacer between the bolt head and the foot peg so that the foot rests don’t spin."

@Nick Gallo DPT. Does your echo bike's handles wobble slightly side-to-side even if tightened up?
It happened the same to me. I tightened it up so hard I almost break my wrist and the arms still wobble

But aren't the footpegs supposed to spin?.
how much would you say the "base" portion of the bike that already comes assembled weighs? not including the other parts that are attached later.

Yea same here. I just did mine as detailed but there seems to a very little wiggle / movement in the handles with all the bolts installed. Is this normal ? I think you have the same in the video ?
I had some initial wobble in my arms. It was a side to side wobble. Loosen the foot pegs then TIGHTEN the 2 bolts on the front of the arm. And I mean REAAALLY tighten it. Don’t be afraid of stripping the bolts. It can take a LOT more. Then reinstall the foot pegs. And that should take care of the problem. No more wobbles whatsoever. Feels hella solid after this fix. It’s a common issue. Hope this helps!
Hey anyone having trouble lining up the arms and pushing it all the way in?? I can't get it to slide thru securely.
They gave me some trouble initially also but once they’re lined up they should slide in, thanks for watching!
Doctor, after tightening down the arms, do you still feel a little back and forward slack in the handles when using the bike? Mine does, and I am at the point that I don’t want to tighten the arms any further.. Thanks
I get this too, must be normal, it's like a little slack before you push or pull and I swear I can't tighten anymore! Does you seat move slightly as well? Any tips?
Great video question my foot pegs when screwed in to the arms bolt seem to have play in it and the bolt doors protrude out a little is that normal . Seems to spin
Aamer Malik, hope you have figured it out by now. But in comments above, to keep the foot peg from spinning, place the spacer between the bolt head and the peg, NOT between the washer and peg as shipped. Hope this helps.
Hi, Should the foot pegs be able to rotate? Or should they be stiff?
Stiff
They should spin freely
Thanks for the video! I was wondering. Those little screws and bolts on the front of the console “neck” did you tighten them? I just left them alone.
they are for the phone holder and drinks holder
I would not advise taking that spacer out of the foot peg. It's part of the assembly as stated in the assembly instructions

Are the pegs supposed to spin? Thanks.
I checked mine last night and my pegs do still spin. Thanks for watching!
@@NickGalloDPT yep. They're designed to spin to stop people standing on them to work their arms.
@@errolkim1334 Ah okay good to know! How are you liking the bike so far?
@@NickGalloDPT yep thanks for asking. Not sure of the calorie counter is accurate. It's an exhausting bit of kit. If I work hard I usually do 350 calories in a day. Very tiring.
I was wondering about the spinning feet pegs in the front. Why are they flexibel? What is the benefit? Is it possible to fix them? What are your thoughts on that. Honestly i see the danger to slip off if you are working out, you are exhausted as hell and want to put your feet on them. Any bad experience with the spinning pegs?
"Excellent video, thank you. Important tip from Boyd Morrison about placing the spacer between the bolt head and the foot peg so that the foot rests don’t spin."
thanks sooooo much
You are very welcome hope it helps!
My pegs were super hard to get on an they spin. Are they supposed to be still?
I have the same problem but I am reading there not supposed to spin
They are supposed to spin! So that you can work your arms without pedaling
