I absolutely love it. Tried it for a few days on vacation because the resort had a few, then started doing it at my work gym, then bought one. I was an athlete in high school and college and now in my 30s I’ve tried all kinds of aerobic fitness equipment over the years. It is the most immersive and exciting piece of fitness equipment I’ve ever used, and singularly the only one that has been able to keep my attention as a real option to train versus going outside and running or cycling. I have also heard very similar stories from colleagues.

I think the people calling it a dumb treadmill or saying it can be replaced by YouTube and a used exercise bike are clueless.

My wife has a bike and absolutely loves it.

We’ve recently tried to purchase one of their treadmills and it’s been a complete joke of incompetence actually trying to get it delivered. Combined with this news it does make us nervous about investing even more money into their ecosystem even though the bike experience has been so positive.

Try to do a live spin class if you're not sure. Barring that - ride a spin bike.

It's about as engaging as indoor cardio can be, but if indoor cardio is highly objectionable or boring for someone it's hard to get over that.

Now is probably the best time to buy a bike, with the company down 82% since last year. Probably won't go much lower than that.
