I want to get one of those spin bikes, but would it be the same thing if I got a mountain bike?

I could get one of those stands for the rear tire(i don't know the name). But if I do get the stand is it the same thing as a spin bike? That way I can ride it outside when I want. If it is the same with the stand, how much is the stand?

Answer
I, and most cyclist here will say a bike on a TRAINER is the best. Trainers are fairly cheap many $100 to $150. But the bike of your choice. I recommend buying a cheap smooth tire for the back wheel, it works much better that way and won't wear out your knobbie tire.

Here's on of many sites you can get them from, and it being end of winter they are on sale: http://www.nashbar.com/index.cfm

Fluid and mag trainers are preferred. You can buy a reasonalble bike and trainer for the same cost as a good spinning bike and get much more use out it like you said.

I think it's Keiser, but maybe someone has a better idea? I want to buy a stationary upright exercise bike for home, but I'm having trouble finding a used Keiser bike for sale in my area. Is there another brand that's just as good or better?

Answer
The Schwinn Airdyne or Aerodyne or soemthing like that has been a staple of exercise bikes for awhile. Assuming you want an exercise bike, and not a Spin bike
