re: Wife wants a Peloton, but open to knockoffs if they're solid. Any suggestions?

I was in the same boat. Went with the NordicTrack s22i. Better price point, and the biggest thing to me is that the trainer self adjusts the resistance. This bike also has the capability to adjust incline. The trainer does this for you as well. Not having to turn knobs during the ride was a huge plus for me. I use it daily and it has been a great investment so far.
