Hey there!
Hopefully this is the correct board for this post... I tried a search and couldn't find anything, so I thought I'd register and ask!
I recently bought a home multigym, no amazing brand name and it was under $1000. Everything is going great with it, seems very stable and sturdy. The only problem with it is an attached leg press machine which can lift up to 95kg. I like doing calf raises with this, but it seems that the constant friction has rubbed through the coating of the cable. I was hoping to find a more durable replacement for this within Australia (best places I can find are in the USA, darn).
Additionally, the low-pull cable is meant to be guided by a pulley in the middle of the home gym, however it sits JUST under the reach of the pulley, making it quite easy to slip to the side and graze the edge of the metal when performing leg extensions. I'm not sure of the pulley dimensions, but the easiest fix I can think of will be a slightly larger pulley, if such a thing exists.
Could anyone point me in the right directions for suppliers? I've been Googling for ages, but all I can find are overpriced items or USA/UK sites. Also doesn't help that I live in Adelaide - I keep finding a bunch of NSW showrooms that are supposed to stock spare parts (only available in-store).
Thanks for your help!
