In early July, the bike developed a loud grinding and knocking sound. Email to Diamondback in an attempt to get information on how to fix this went unanswered. I have since removed my original review, and have noticed some interesting information on the Diamondback website in the interim.

This review is from: Diamondback Fitness 500Ub Upright Exercise Bike (Sports) The bike developed a clicking sound two weeks after receiving the bike. Contacted Amazon and was told to contact the manufacturer. Its been two months, called Diamonback every 2 weeks and was told somebody would contact me to have my bike serviced. Called them back today, nobody picked up the phone. Left messages with a Scott and David, both promised to call me back. The click developed into a thud 3 weeks in and it has been completely unusable. Then I read it here that there's no support if bought from online. Amazon should have put a disclaimer here and should not have passed the buck! Now looking for ways to get my money back hopefully my credit card issuer can help. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
