Elite Direto XR - strange sound

Hi,

I bought a new Elite Direto XR, yesterday I had a second training.
At certain steady speeds, there is a strange noise like in the attached video. What could it be?
The number of watts does not matter, it depends on the speed of rotation of the flywheel.
When I drive a little faster or slower, this sound disappears or appears intermittently.
Do any of you have such a symptom?

Hi

From the video I cannot hear anything unusual, honestly :geek:
Maybe the video is not clear enough, though...

I also have a problem with a strange sound. Not sure if it's the same issue. I've had my trainer since last May and it has been silent. Used it 3/4 times a week for pretty much the last year. Haven't been on it for about 3 weeks. It's still in the same place, hasn't been moved. Bike still mounted. Used for the first the other week and it's making a strange noise. It's always there. What ever power. Just seems to get louder and faster with the cadence.

This is riding at 150w

This is at 350w

Any help much appreciated
