| The nicest one I've tried is Lemond's. $32/month for life. | Bianchi4Me
Jan 17, 2002 10:56 PM | | The Greg Lemond model from Stairmaster is hugely expensive but it's much nicer than the "Johnny G" Schwinn you typically see. The major difference is that the adjustments are infinite, no pins and holes that limit you to one of 4 or 5 positions. For a non-cyclist, the limited preset adjustments are not a major issue I guess. However, if you are used to being on a bike that actually FITS, it's like nagging toothache to ride a spinning bike where the seat is 1/2" too high or too short, 1/2" too far forward or back, the stem is off a little, etc. I've only ridden the Lemond briefly at Interbike, and it's crazy money, but it seems like the class of the field.

Jan 18, 2002 12:38 PM | | Just purchased a Spinner Elite from an outfit in Camp Hill, PA called New Age Fitness. They sell Spinner bikes that were used by health clubs. Paid $275 for the bike and a wopping $100 for shipping to Seattle. It's not perfect (chain needed some adjustment and seat rail moves around a bit) but it's a substantial price savings compared to new. |
