spin bike

Indoor cycling machine

A spin bike is a stationary exercise bicycle designed for high-intensity indoor cycling workouts.

Unlike upright exercise bikes, spin bikes feature a heavy flywheel, adjustable resistance, and a riding position that mimics road cycling.

They're the equipment used in spinning classes: The gym added twenty new spin bikes for the morning classes.
