I know the rower kind of took over the arm pump discussion. That was not the intension. To be clear I am not saying the Rower is a cure for arm pump. I just know that when you are in better shape (Cardio and strength) you tend to ride and feel better. The reason so many riders like the rower...
The prices used can be pretty high because the CrossFit and Military guys all want them. I see them going for $650-700 and a new Model D from us here at the factory is only $900.00 and $45 shipping.
