Ribbed Drive Belt
The drive belt is the primary interface between the handle pull and the resistance flywheel. Over time, the polymer material can undergo 'glazing' where the surface becomes smooth and loses its coefficient of friction, leading to a high-pitched squeak as it slips against the drive pulley under load. This part restores the necessary grip for silent operation.

Idler Pulley Tensioner Assembly
This assembly maintains constant pressure on the drive belt to prevent slipping. If the internal sealed bearing within the pulley develops microscopic galling or loses lubrication, it will emit a rhythmic squeak that varies with the intensity of the pull. Replacing the entire assembly ensures proper belt tension and eliminates bearing-induced noise.

Flywheel Shaft Bearings
The electromagnetic resistance is applied to a high-inertia flywheel. The bearings supporting this shaft are under constant load; if they experience axial misalignment or debris ingress, they will create a consistent squeak or chirp that persists as the flywheel spins down. This component is the final link in the resistance mechanism's rotational path.
