Default Spin Bikes -- Recommendations?

I've been thinking of buying a spin bike for the house. Does anyone have any recommendations on which one I should go with? I have a line on a used Lemond Revmaster, but haven't done much looking beyond that.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not sure about spin bikes, but what about using a regular bike and magnetic/fluid trainer? Or were you going for the pedal/cadence technique, that a fixed gear gives?

I have a fluid trainer; wife used it today. Great if you already have a bike. Fluid makes a killer spin bike, too.

Those are the three styles I know about; wicked!
