    I’m gonna have to get a small tv to cast my workouts to. I am ridiculously far sighted and unless I wear my glasses (which I can’t because sweating) I can’t see the screen that close on the handlebars. I can’t be the only one with this problem? Lol

    I have a Sole SB900. According to reviews (I did extensive research before choosing a bike) it’s better quality than a Peleton or Echelon for 1/3 of the price of a Peleton. They also have older models like the SB700 for less.

    The only negative (according to reviews, not to me) is it doesn’t have a big screen and app. It does have a tablet/phone holder. I use YouTube (on my tv) for my spin workouts.

    I find it extremely comfortable, quiet and easy to use. I used to hate stationary biking and now love it.

    Edit: @33gail33 I see you got one! Great! My favourite Youtuber is Kaleigh Cohen Fitness.

    I do Les Mills Sprint also, which is like a HIIT spin class, but it's definitely not as fun as The Trip

    Kudos - I really struggle with spint. I have manage 10 a few times but I don't have the heart in it like trip. How are you finding 22? I puked the first time I tried it lol think that is the hardest one for me. Great fun but a killer!

    Excited to see other people commenting about LMOD. I love the other LM workout programs but don't have equipment to do the Trip/Sprint programs. I've been anxious to try it so it's good to see that people enjoy it. Now I just need to scare up the right bike for it! :)

    You know, I did the same thing. lol. Did Body Pump, Combat, Attack and CXWORX (or I guess its now called Les Mills Core or something?) for a whole year and just eyed those bike programs and never even seriously considered buying bike until recently. I had a few extra hundred dollars and jumped in. Ive been VERY happy with them. I don't love RPM (even though Dan's over there doing his RPM thing), but it's not terrible. Sprint and The Trip are totally worth buying the bike for. Sprint might be the best 30 minute workout I've ever done. It KILLS me. I lift also, and I feel like the bike is a really nice complement to it.

    As a sidenote. LMOD was down the other night for some reason and it was bike night. I tried to do like, 3 or 4 different youtube bike workouts instead and couldnt make it through 5 minutes in any of them. Not because they were hard either, they were just really boring and lame.
