I believe that I fit the same category as you. I wanted a bike that I could use with the Peloton Digital app, but that I could also use in Zwift, Fulgaz, Rouvy, etc. I didn’t want to bring a dirty outdoors bike indoors and I didn’t want to take up as much space as an outdoor bike would. That left my choices to either an indoor spinning bike with BT and/or ANT+ connectivity or one of the four smart bikes: wattbike, Stages, Tacx, Wahoo. I felt that the smart bikes are at their “1.0” stage of development and need more work after some user feedback. I was able to find an unbelievably good deal on an IC7 that had only been used as a demo model in trade shows. I was able to purchase this bike for $1650 even though their MSRP when new is $3200. After adding the new TFT 2.0 console for $350, I’ve invested $2000 in this bike so far. I think that I will be able to sell it for close to that amount when the “2.0” versions of the smart bikes come out. I would not buy a brand new LF IC7 for $3200. I think that a wattbike atom or StagesBike SB20 for ~$2900 is a better value.
BTW, there are more of these LF bikes used as tradeshow demos available from the place where I got mine in Santa Ana, California.
