We truly stand by our product, our durability and our customer service. It's the amazing team behind the scenes at Concept2 that is answering the phones, troubleshooting and working to make our Concept2 Community the wonderful community it is.
After watching 2-3 years of the whole connected fitness phase (and passing on ALL of them, btw) I suspect the only survivor will be @concept2. Great product and even better operators.
