Stationary Bikes

[Walter W.]

Looking to buy a stationary bike for me and my wife to use. Not looking for a high-dollar one or a cheap one, just a middle of the road type as far as money goes. Any recommendations are appreciated.

If you already own a bike and ride a fair amount, I'd look at a trainer rather than a stationary - a Kurt Road Machine can be snagged on Craigs' List for $200 or less fairly often, and those things are great, as far as passive fluid trainers go. If you already own a bike and ride a TON, I'd look at something like a Wahoo Kickr or Kickr Snap and Zwift (the Kurt is Zwift compatible with a rear wheel speed sensor, and Zwift helps a lot with making indoor training more tolerable).

Actual stationary bikes, I'm less help, I'm afraid.
