Can this be used on an indoor spin bike?

If the specific Indoor Bike has an Ant+ compatible speed sensor then yes. Otherwise your speed and distance will always be zero as the unit relies on GPS to calculate speed and distance.

I'm not sure what all is implied by "an indoor spin bike" but I'll tell you what I know. I use it all the time indoors on my road bike that is in a trainer. I got the Garmin GSC 10 speed/cadence sensor and the sensor unit mounts on the left chain stay with the magnet on a rear wheel spoke. It gives a speed based off of the wheel spinning and a distance too. Outside I think the distance is GPS based but not sure.

The Timex GPS Bike Computer is not designed to work inside, since you typically cannot get a clear GPS single due to being inside. Also, you have to be moving forward in order to activate GPS tracking. There is no wheel magnet.

It is compatible with all ANT+ devices if you have a power tap/cadence sensor with ANT+, it can be used. However I strongly recommend not to buy this product based on my worst experience with the product and the after sales service from Timex. Most customer unfriendly company I have ever dealt with

Yes, you can use this computer on indoor spin bike. but you need to buy an ant+ sensor. (ex, garmin)

You can spin on this bike but I strongly recommend against do so. It's not a very heavy bike and you could easily lose your balance and tip over.

I don't know. I use mine on a spin bike. I just know shimano makes great gear.

Possibly. I've found that the puzzle pieces sometimes come apart when I move very vigorously, so it may be fine for something like a bench, but less great for something like a cardio bike. In general, I put the puzzle mat on top of a non-skid mat made for carpets so it moves around less. Also make sure to measure the equipment as you may need to connect a second set of pieces depending on how big the equipment is.

Yes and no. You can if the bike is firmly secure and doesn't "pivot." But if the bike "pivots" or leans to the inside then the pedal will hit. All in all, I would answer that Yes you can pedal it fine. I will be honest. I bought this rack for general repairs and I absolutely love it. I would highly recommend it for general maintenance and cleaning. The only addition I made was buying the Park handlebar stabilizer. That comes in super handy to hold the handlebars in place.

A stationary bike will work if the fly-wheel is exposed and has a good texture to grab the shaft of the dynamo. It's designed for the rubber tire of the bicycle to work sort of like a gear against the textured plastic cap on the end of the shaft making it spin. If you can affix it to the stationary bike so that it is up against the spinning wheel and if the there is enough friction that it doesn't sleep it should work fine.

You can, but you need to place resistance on the tire and wheel to add rolling resistance. Otherwise you are just free spinning. The higher the gearing, the less the amount of rotation (cadence) and the less exercise you end up getting

It depends on the size, diameter of the axle of the pedals on the spin bike.

I have not tried with indoor bikes but it is the same as any other ant+ hrm and should work.

I would say yes. Most of the spinning bikes use this type of cleat. I've been to several gyms in different cities and always use these type of cleats. If you already attend the gym, stop by the class and check with the attendees. Just ask someone that has spinning shoes to show you the type of cleat they have or ask the instructor.

No, the wheel will not spin freely. The stand supports the bike upright. A work stand would be better suited to hold the bike to spin the wheels.

I see no reason why it wouldn't work. If you plan to use one I would suggest you put in under the inside dual wheel.

Not sure what a "spin" bike is, but, if it has a wheel that turns, I imagine it could be..

You can...but it doesn't work very well. It won't spin unless its on a flat surface.

I do not see why not. unless there is an extra special way of mounting a sseat on your bike. I love mind, worked great for me.

Yes! I follow a spin class app while using mine, and there is a lot of out of the saddle work in the program, so I stand and ride quite a bit. No stability issues with the bike so far. I've had it a couple of months.

It's possible, but I think you are better of just putting something in the slot that is already rotating and spinning it on top of the device. There is a bunch of gear reduction inside, so you would have to deal with that.
