Bowflex C6 bike

Posted by Purple n GOLDUST on 4/21/22 at 6:28 pm

Any thoughts or reviews on this bike? It has good reviews and seems to be a solid alternative to a Peleton. I found a used one for $300, so figured it would be a good addition to my home gym. https://www.bowflex.com/bikes/c6/100894.html...
