I have a Shimpo RK-10 with traction drive that’s slipping after about 15 minutes of use. I have checked everything external such as bearing and belts. Have come to the conclusion that it’s a problem inside the metallic traction drive mechanism itself. Wondering if anyone has pulled one of these to bits and repaired it. Surely must of happened to more people than myself.have tried talking to Shimpo but they no longer support this model.
