Nice bike. Overpriced because of the gimmick.

I think you can find comparable quality for half the price.

You can find a bike and trainer, with Zwift, which is better and also includes a road bike. Probably half the price if you search

Got the bike+ and it’s great.

Probably overpriced though but I’d buy it again. The classes help a ton with motivation. Auto-adjusting resistance to the classes is 10/10

Zwift is better.

You use your own bike. Buy the rear hub to connect it to.

Then when you use the app you race other people and such. No trainer yelling at you like a class.

If you already have a bike, this seems as simple.

If you buy the Bowflex version of the Peloton bike it has the ANT+ receiver so you can use Zwift with it and then you can get free spin classes on Youtube or simply subscribe to the Peloton app without paying for the bike. Plus it's cheaper.

This is new but it is a rebranded solid product for a cheaper price
If op wants it he should probably order once it is available because the price is the best in industry and they may be hard to get

I have a H3 that WAS $$$$ but Saris is going under so they are blowing them out now.
Risky for warranty though

Oh stationary bikes and spin classes are making a comeback, how amusing
Lifts:
Squat: 460x1
Bench: 400x1
Deadlift: 575x1
OHP: 250x2
Weight: 180 lbs.

Don't have heroes; look up to no one. Because as long as someone's leading the way, the best you'll ever be is second.

I was very close to buying it when the market was zooming upwards in Fall/Winter 2021. Didn't get one, kinda unsure if I would've been using it tbh. I wouldn't want to buy it 2nd hand because a big perk is that you get to have them install it / adjust it for your height and room and stuff. Got a treadmill as a gift that I use only on the rare occasion, unless I get anal about burning Calories.

Jeez.

Makes me feel a lot better about my used airdyne. It must be a nice app, but I'd rather put in a tv or something if I was that bored to use it.

Get an Echo Bike from Rogue. It’ll kick your ass, and you’ll burn way more calories with intense HIIT workouts than you will on a Peloton.

I ride on the road / race on the track. When there isn’t ice / snow on the road I ride outside.

Over the winter, mentally I cannot ride indoors. I’ve tried everything including zwift. It’s simply too boring. I ride my bike on a mag trainer and use a structured training plan through my Garmin GPS - with the peloton app running in the background for noise. The classes are gimmicky / hokey, but I was able to complete every one of my training rides last winter.

IMO The value is in the class, not the bike.

I have one.

They're expensive and honestly overpriced for what you use it for. Paying that much for the bike and STILL have to pay a subscription fee for the app/classes is robbery.

That being said, it works well, feels quality, the classes are decent and a ton of variety, and it's nice to have to knock out cardio.

My girl bought it - otherwise no way I'd pay that much for it.
