Get ready for your New Year's resolution with deals on exercise bikes for riders of all levels, from smart bikes to spin bikes and budget exercise bikes
Whether you're looking for an interactive option to ride on Zwift, want to take part in an online spin class or just need a budget machine for a quick spin in the kitchen, we've found a selection of exercise bike deals for both US and UK readers.
Higher spec machines are smart and include the option to hook up to training apps like Zwift or Wahoo X for an immersive, interactive session with automatically variable resistance. Spin bikes like those from Peloton and Echelon will allow you to join online exercise classes, whereas budget exercise bikes just let you alter the resistance manually.
A smart bike is a high-end alternative to the more widely used smart trainers, but whereas the trainer requires you to hook up a bike to ride, a smart bike builds everything into the machine. If you've got the space and the budget, it means that there's no set-up required, and you can just hop on and ride whenever you want.
We've found some great turbo trainer deals too, but if you're looking for a one-stop shop for your exercise needs, read on.
