Best Exercise Bikes 2024 | Our Expert's Top 10 List

A real person explaining well, i want a bike with built in calorie burner, uphill, old school 4 or 5 programs

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

Thanks for watching. Most home spin bikes don't actually have standard onboard workout programs, like treadmills. The Sole SB1200 has target settings you can preset for your distance, time, and calories. This bike has a touch screen but it's pretty straightforward to use. I would recommend this one, the Bowflex C6 or the Keiser M3i. Not sure what budget you're looking at, but these cover the low to high range. The Bowflex and Keiser track your metrics, including your calories, but they don't include workout programs like hill climb.

[@amyb6352]

I have the Bowflex C6 and love it. If you are looking for a reliable bike but do not need all the 'frills' it's great. Extremely quiet and smooth! I adapted mine to be able to use the Peloton classes and it works just fine.

[@JCooK2007]

The noise level is actually super important for me, I like to exercise while my kids are sleeping (early AM) thanks for the comment!

[@lennylink8772]

Are you going to do a separate video of Smart bikes that work with zwift and the other online biking game programs?

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

We can definitely look into creating a video like that. We've been focused mainly on the "best overall" but we can look into creating some more specific content geared towards that. Thanks for the idea!

Which one would you say is best for tall people? I’m 6’6

[@jking369]

Any of the Bikes out of the box VR ready?

[@petermccavington8232]

What are the benefits of wearing the special bike shoes?

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

Wearing cycling shoes allows you to use the full pedal stroke rather than just pushing down on the pedals. They fit more securely and work more efficiently than toe clips, too.

Do you have a similar "Best of" for 2023 ellipticals?

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

We have plans for this video in the future, but in the meantime, you can check out our best ellipticals list here: www.treadmillreviewguru.com/best-elliptical-machines/

[@DH-ik1vf]

I just purchased the Sole E95. New 2020 model with a pretty good deal.

[@sonia5874]

Why didn’t you not include Sole’s SB 700 or any friction based bikes??Some people may not want to spend too much or may not like a magnetic resistance bike.Curious.

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

Great question and thanks for watching! We've had the Sole SB700 on our list of best exercise bikes for the last 4 years or so but Sole has this bike on closeout currently and isn't planning to bring it back. It's still a great option and is super affordable right now. We also used to have the MYX/Bodi bike on this list which is friction resistance but have replaced it with the Kaiser bike. We don't have any issues with friction resistant bikes, they're great options and often times much more affordable. Since Peloton, we've seen a shift in the market as manufacturers shift more and more to compete and create magnetic bikes. Thanks for your feedback! We'll do our best to be a little more inclusive next time.

You should review the Carol. Most efficient workout.

[@Marian1st.]

Stages and Kaiser too.

[@cherylricard2755]

​@@Marian1st.Stages went bankrupt. Sad.

[@Marian1st.]

@@cherylricard2755 That’s why I couldn’t find them on Amazon. Yeah, sad. They had a great product. I have a Rogue Echo bike. My second choice would be Peloton, because of the workouts.

[@Marian1st.]

@@cherylricard2755 Too bad. They had a great bike.

[@cf6634]

How about recumbents?

[@lennylink8772]

My sweat zone is 360 around my body. I'm completely soaked after working out. I work hard.

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

😂Respect on that work ethic!

[@scott12330_fun_with_games]

Do you have anything here that has a 400 lb weight limit?

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

Nothing on this list has a 400-lb weight limit unfortunately. The market is really lacking in anything over a 350-lb weight capacity. The only reputable brand I could find with a 400-lb weight limit was Life Fitness, and they are quite expensive. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

[@scott12330_fun_with_games]

@@TreadmillReviewGuru Thank you. :)

[@catherinemurray2211]

Which is the most comfortable???

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

I like the Peloton and Bowflex bikes most for comfort. Most of these exercise bikes allow you to switch the saddle, too, for improved comfort. I'm also really looking forward to trying out the Aviron Fit Bike because they did a great job making their rower comfortable. However, recumbent bikes are also a great option if you want your bike to be as comfortable as possible.

[@sonia5874]

I noticed that a lot of spin studios use the Spinning brand bikes but not any reviews on them.They do have home versions available too.What are your thoughts if any on these bikes and have you tried any of their commercial bikes since you have mentioned that you are a certified spin instructor I believe?? Thanks.

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

I used one Spinning bike when I got my initial certification years ago. I don't remember which model it was, unfortunately. It was a commercial model though so it handled a lot of use well and had good adjustability. The only part of it that stood out to me was the console. I found it to be a little confusing, but the models Spinning has now seem to have been updated since then. I can't speak to their home bikes, but can imagine they're of great quality as well. Spinning is a world-renowned certification and they know indoor cycling.

[@jobber1984]

Awesome video!

[@backpacker778]

what about a magnetic schwinn 😊

[@petermccavington8232]

How about an exercise bike to road bike 2 in 1 🤔🤔🤫

[@TreadmillReviewGuru]

A bike trainer might be what you are looking for.

[@avidwriter2882]
