Hiya, I am looking to buy a Spin Bike and am trying to get some recommendations. I have used a LeMond Spin bike at my local gym and know they are brilliant however I can't afford to buy a brand new one. I have found a website who sell them refurbished for £349. I don't know if i'm better off buying one of these of a brand new BH SB2. Can anyone help?


Answer
From the looks of them there is not much that can go bad. The resistance is a manual friction device that looks like it would last forever. I would go with the refurbished one if the company has a guarantee.

Can you recommend a make/model of a good indoor spinning bike?

Any advice on a good make/model for an indoor spinning bike? thanks


Answer
Hands down the best indoor bike is the CycleOps with a PowerTap for $1900:

Without the power meter you can get it for $1100:

Another one that's good is the Lemond RevMaster, also $1000 and up:

I would recommend a trainer or rollers though, to use with a regular outdoor bike. Much cheaper!
