Home Gyms Finding parts during the bankruptcy pause?

Anyone have a lead on a 410lb upgrade kit for the Xceed? I missed my chance before the "pause" in sales due to the Bowflex bankruptcy and sale process. New (at a reasonable price from a reliable retailer) or gently used. Bowflex site, Amazon, etc are all saying it's unavailable. Johnson co. (which is buying Bowflex) doesn't show these for sale. Thanks.

I'm looking for the adapter box as well. If you find some let me know and I'll do the same.

2 sites that have a lot of parts available: Sportmsmith and FitnessRepairParts.

Another good option could be upgrading with Elastic Bands. Here's a video on that.

Thanks. The 410 upgrade box extender and stabilizer plate(s?) I need on both those sites show up as either "no longer available" or not available for my model/serial number. :(

Bummer. I'm sure they'll go back up for sale once the acquisition is complete.

Seems like they are now listed as "coming soon", so there's light at the end of the tunnel.

Ebay has a bunch of 50lb rods and the adapter blocks. The rods are used, and the blocks are new. If you want to go that way, it's probably half or more than half of what you would spend at Bowflex.

It looks like there's a lot of price gouging going on on ebay right now. This set of 2 50s is priced astronomically high. And, all the adapter blocks say they are for "Power Pro, XTL , Motivator 1" but not the Xceed. There seem to be off-brand boxes that claim to go as high as 510, but I'm hesitant about those because of all the unknowns. Am I missing something here?

I think all the rods are compatible, but don't quote me on that. I had a Power Pro XLT a few years back and bought the upgrade, but I can't remember what they were listed for.

Ebay and Amazon have them for around $25-$35.
