This is a bit of funny math The bike, set up and delivered to your house with one year of subscription is $2800. So effectively it is $2800 for the first year, then it is roughly $500 per year after that, so $40/month. That does not include the extended warranty. |
This is a good review of indoor spin bikes if you go the route of using the app ($12.99/month) with your own bike:

Yes, keep in mind the bike alone is $2000 and subscription is $40/month. Subscription alone over 39 months is a total of $1560. I would definitely not do the 39 month financing if you think there is any chance you'd drop the classes because you're paying for that in the financing option. |
I saw so many peloton commercials between Halloween and New Years that I feel as though I own one already. I was out somewhere and heard that Sia song that they use in the commercial and immediately started picturing the peloton screen. They win at pavlovian marketing for sure. |
I’ve had one for a couple years now. Both DH and I use it though I don’t as often when the weather is nice and I can run or bike outside. It’s a great option to have tho for weeks like the past one where I have zero desire to go outside or haul myself to the gym before work. It’s not the same energy as you’d get from attending a real class, but it’s pretty good. And way more convenient. Its a great workout too - much tougher than I’d push myself to do when just running on a treadmill or elliptical. Robin Arzon is my fave instructor - she’s pretty funny - lots of sass. |
Oh gosh this thread is going to make me do something I won't be able to take back! Even worse, I've spoken to a couple of people I know who've bought the bike, and not a single person regrets it or has gone longer than one month without riding. I do work out fairly consistently but I have zero experience with working out at home. But the idea of giving up driving to my spin classes and doing it at home is so tempting. |
Don't hesitate. It's awesome.
I have already booked two live rides for tomorrow. I seriously cannot get enough. |
I love Alex!!! |

We just got the flywheel version of this. Anyone else have this? |
She's my favorite, too! |
Let me know what you think - I take Flywheel classes and like their bikes so am thinking about getting one. |
Any other favorites? I liked Nicole but I don't think she is there anymore so I am running out of her classes to take ![]() |
I like Jennifer, she does a lot of the rock n roll themed rides. |
I LOVED Nicole Meline. She left over a year ago. I follow her on Instagram and fb and she’s pretty active on both. It doesn’t appear she will be coming back to Peloton which is a real shame. I also love Robin, Alex and Cody. My current favorite ride is the Robin and DJ John Michael 45 min Friday rides. I also get great numbers on all of Alex’s rides. Did anyone read about Peloton announcing today they are releasing a treadmill with a tablet, and from the video it looks like they are trying to tap the Orange Theory class market. I am super interested. |
