It feels like we’re entering what’s seeming to be the golden age of at-home fitness — with a functional, space-conscious and actually fun home gym set-up being the thing everyone wants. It makes sense — gyms aren’t the safest pandemic-era decision to make (coming with their own risks and costs) and with work, school and play being at home, stolen time-saving workouts are the move.

There are expensive options for this at-home workout fix — including the viral, cult favorite Peloton bike. But, now, there are some more affordable options available for the high-tech bike that you can score when indoor spinning is something you love or want to try but you aren’t interested in the OG Peloton’s stressful price tag of $2,500.

Here’s a few that caught our eye during Prime Day:

As a reminder, these and all the incredible discounts you can score during Prime Day are for Amazon Prime members. If you’re not a member just yet, be sure to sign up HERE to take advantage of all the great savings from Amazon Prime Day 2024, which will take place from July 16-17.

pooboo Indoor Cycling Bike — $200, originally $270

This bike from pooboo is sturdy, but with an adjustable seat and handlebars to make it versatile for taller and shorter members of your family. It’s got a stand for your ipad/tablet (so you can tune into whatever virtual class you’re loving at the moment or catch up on whatever show you want to binge) and an LCD screen to track all the health data you’re itching to know mid-workout.

MERACH Exercise Bike — $190, originally $300

A comfy seat and a design focused on minimizing wobbling, this bikedoes the data-tracking you want from a smart bike and offers a dumbbell rack and free fitness courses.

YOSUDA Indoor Cycling Bike Stationary — $264, originally $340

A smooth, steel-frame bike, this one from Yosuda works to give a smooth and quiet ride (and extra precautions to allow you to stop your flywheels immediately if the ride gets too fast). Adjustable cage pedals and the LCD screen/Ipad mount also lets you have the high-tech, comfortable ride you want.

So, if you were thinking about going ahead with a home-workout investment piece and aren’t in the market for the much-hyped expensive bike, maybe one of these bikes will be the ride for you.
