best spinning bike consumer report image

Answer
Best is subjective (and unless price doesn't matter should be based on value for the price). My wife is an elliptical fan (I prefer my spin bike) and tried several before choosing the Octane (front drive) because it 'felt the best".
The position of the drive is more a personal preference than a determinant of which is the best trainer. There are several "best elliptical trainer" sites out there (Google it), but the independent review site Consumer Reports' top rated elliptical trainer (Diamond Back 1260Ef) is a front drive model, while the 2nd and 3rd (tied) were front drive and rear drive models (Sole E35 and Pacemaster Silver XT). Note that these models, along with Precor and Octane are on most lists of top brands/models ... all of which feature a mix of front and back drive designs.
