| - Zero stars is what this review on Yelp should be...So what should we all do about Shea Mountainside Fitness spin bikes? This is the second time my clips have come out of the cleats and I've gashed the back on my leg. Bruised, bleeding, and swollen...hope it doesn't get infected. My Prince Charming took the handles and seat post of Bike F, put both posts in the trash can, then wheeled the remains of the bike into the manager's office. Oh the looks he got! I told the manager the bikes aren't worth "fixing" anymore, they are pieces of crap and need to be replaced. Bike O has a stripped screw on the right cleat that hasn't been fixed since they tried to fix it on their Grand Reopening day 2 frickin' weeks ago...sorry that my friend got stuck with that bike....I told them to put the white board back up in the spin room so we can document all the bikes that need things replaced, tightened, fixed. Who cares that Corp doesn't like the board. Big frickin' deal in Grand Opening - the gym gets new paint. New floors. New furniture. New lockers... But what changed equipment-wise????? Same old pieces of $hit bikes. Who spread the rumor that the spin bikes where getting all new parts?! I guess that shut us up for a month or so. We have been members there for years, and we've been promised soooooo many times that things will get fixed. We were even told at the first remodel years ago we were getting all new bikes! Ha! What saps we are...shame on us. The members on the ellipticals and treadmills were all just laughing and shaking their heads for days after the reopening because no one bothered to re-level all the machines! Even though they told the front desk about them, I guess eventually a week or so later they were leveled finally!? Our spin room did get new paint, a disco strobe light (why?) and a raised surface for the instructor but nothing changed for US the members! So has their policy changed about giving the teachers spin bike away if it's the last bike open? I can't wait to spin and watch a person on the instructor's bike who has no beat and can't follow verbal instruction from the instructor walking around. I'm not new to spin - I've logged in more time since 1995 than most people, have taken classes at over a dozen studios, but I have yet to ever have this injury happen to me elsewhere! And twice!!?? Throw the bikes out! Don't fix them please. They are a hazard and someone will really get hurt! Everything wobbles, is stripped, is loose, is rusty, seats are split...need I go on??? I only bled on the floor and towels and my bike pack...went thru a few bandages and now have a very painful attractive bruise and cut. I have had it with this place...they have lost amazing instructors and members over the last year. It's time to go... Isn't it the final straw when multiple people have said they drive right by this gym and drive all the way down to the Pavilions because they know the bikes and machines all work down there!? Come'on Scottsdale, BUY NEW SPIN BIKES!!!!!!!!!!!
