[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I had been on the fence but took the plunge today. There is a showroom not far from where I live so I visited it to try out the bike first. About the bike itself, it's high quality. It's higher quality than the spin bikes at my gym. I have been doing spin classes for 10 years in various locations and this is better than my experience with gym bikes.

I signed up with the 0% interest 39-month payment plan which includes the subscription for 39 months. I view it as a gym membership fee. I wouldn't use the bike without the subscription, so felt comfortable doing that, but not sure I'd do that if I didn't already have a history of doing spinning classes, though.

I will report back to this thread![/quote]

So what is your cost?  I have not priced these but this thread has me intrigued.  I do not have a gym nearby and this sounds like something I could do.  Might be worth the (presumably substantial) investment[/quote]

It's expensive. My per-month total for 39 months is $120. That's delivery and set-up fee, family accessories pack (more below), bike itself, full extended warranty, and monthly subscription fee for 39 months. When I was in the store they told me the base cost of the 39-month financing package was $97/month which I think is just the bike, delivery, and the subscription for 39 months.

You can pay cash for it all of course but in my case I was willing to take the 39-month subscription cost because I don't think it's likely I won't use it, given that I have a long history of spin classes.

The family accessories pack was because I was going to have to buy the mat and new shoes anyhow -- my existing cleats are SPD so not compatible and they are running a promotion right now giving $100 off the accessories. Also my husband wanted a pair of cleats and this was easier than him trying to find time to go buy cleats elsewhere.

I got the warranty because I have seen how gym spin bikes can wear down. Repairs are expensive.[/quote]

Wow $4,680!! That’s a lot more that I thought it would be![/quote]
