Peloton bike
So who has one? Do you love it? Is it worth it?
So torn..thinking about dropping the gym and getting one.
My co-worker loves hers and raves about it but I wanted to get other reviews.

I was actually surprised there weren’t any posts on here about it. I searched before posting.

Peloton bike
I have had one for almost 3 years and I’m obsessed. I use it 3 or more times a week. It’s not only spinning, it’s yoga, full body training, boot camp (if you also have a treadmill). Any questions FM me, I could rave about it for hours!

This is what I hear but I guess I can’t believe it’s true. Do know anyone who bought a used bike? Trying to figure out if it’s worth trying to save some money that way.

No I don’t but I know there’s a facebook group that sells used ones. I would just be careful because you don’t know how rough the prior owner was on it and it would be expensive to replace the screen or other parts, especially if the warranty expired.
I do know some people that use a spin bike they have and just stream the classes through the app on their iPad. They would just be paying the monthly fee of around $40. It could be something to consider if you have an old spin bike.

It’s also possible to use a road bike on a trainer. I’ve never used the app but have done Cycling workouts on my road bike in the past.

This is what I do. Couldn’t afford the Peloton at the time so I got a spin bike and use my iPad to stream.

I do this! (Well, I've "done" this... I don't do it with enough frequency because I'm lazy AF.)
I bought a $300 bike on Amazon with a $20 ipad clip and use the Peloton app.
