Not everyone can afford a Peloton. Even when they go on sale, you won't find them going for anywhere near 40% off. Luckily, there are other brands that can get the job done just as well without sending you into a financial crisis.
NordicTrack’s commercial Commercial S22i Studio Cycle spin bike is currently on sale for 40% off, making it $899 (down from $1499.99) on Amazon, which matches the levels it reached on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
What the NordicTrack Commercial S22i Studio Cycle offers
Founded in 2012, Peloton might be the biggest player in the spin bike scene, but they weren't there first. NordicTrack has been making home gym equipment since 1975, and is a trusted brand among fitness enthusiasts.
The NordicTrack Commercial S22i Studio Cycle spin bike has a lot of the same features as the basic Peloton Bike, making it an attractive alternative to the leading brand—especially at this price point.
This bike comes with a 22" rotating touchscreen and a 30-day trial of the iFit subscription (it costs $39 per month afterward) that grants you access to video classes and fitness instructors. It allows for your live trainer to incline, decline, and adjust the resistance for you during your workouts (something the Peloton doesn't do). There are a variety of fitness-level workouts to choose from, with leaderboards to compare your performances with others. You also get a fan and other accessories (stuff you usually have to pay extra for if you buy a Peloton). You can read PCMag's "excellent" review of the S22i here.

The entry level S15i is a full 50% off
If you are truly price-conscious, NordicTrack's entry-level bike, the Commercial S15i Studio Cycle, is available at an even bigger discount on Amazon—at $649, it's a full 50% off the retail price. The S15i has a smaller display than the S221, and doesn't offer quite as much in terms of resistance or incline, but it's still a decent choice if that $250 price difference is a deciding factor.
