Riding in the winter isn't for everyone we know that, there are a number of the Cycling Weekly team that prefer to hibernate indoors on Zwift, instead of getting all wrapped up. Exercise bikes assuming you have the space, can be a more stable and practical solution over say a turbo trainer.
This Black Friday, the home workout steed we ranked as our best budget exercise bike is available at an even lower price, now under £200.
You can get 33% off the Domyos Basic Exercise Bike 100 through Decathlon.

When we put the Domyos Basic Exercise bike through its paces we said it is "the perfect place to get started".
Reviews on the Decathlon website which are directly from those already drawn in by the Basic 100's value, found the Domyos to be a sturdy, stable and well-built exercise bike.
The fully adjustable saddle position, height and handlebars should allow most riders enough scope to get comfortable. With Decathlon claiming "The chain drivetrain feels like a real road bike,"
The bike features a 12kg flywheel controlled with a leather break pad, which should offer plenty of range when you want to ramp up the resistance.
Unfortunately, this offer is only available in the UK, with Decathlon US not appearing to stock the bike.
Don't fear, though, there are still plenty of exercise bike bargains for US residents this Black Friday. Among the best deals is 13% off Peloton, whose market-leading bike is now $1,295.
Echelon has also posted what they are calling a "doorbuster sale" on the Connect EX3 – the exercise bike we ranked as Peloton's best alternative – which has been reduced from $1,299.99 to just $349.99.
When we put the EX-3 to the test in our best exercise bike guide, Hannah had this to say about it, "a sturdy and compact bike that provides both comfort and functionality. Customisation is easy with an adjustable oversized seat and handlebar console."
What really drew Hannah in was the Echelons tit app which offered a much wider variety of classes and workouts over its competition peloton.
