We’ve seen some sweet deals on smart trainers and smart bikes in the past year thanks to manufacturers being overstocked and needing to make room for fresh inventory.
But the deal announced by Zwift and Stages today may be the best yet!
While supplies last, you can pick up the Stages SB20 Smart Bike plus a full year of Zwift for just $1399. Let’s break that down:
- The Stages SB20 is a high-quality smartbike with a suggested retail price of $3150USD, although it’s been on sale for $2500 for months.
- Zwift for 1 year is $180USD
Based on the current SB20 pricing of $2500, this package price represents a 44% discount (or 58% off the suggested retail price)!
If you’re looking to buy a quality smartbike this season, this may be the best deal you’ll get. And if you make the purchase through this link, we’ll get a small affiliate commission that supports this site. A win-win!
(Oh, and did I mention that customers in the continental US get free shipping?)

Question – I’m 6’1″ and my wife is 5’2″. How messy would it be for us to readjust each time we want to switch off?
It is not hard, I have one I use it the most at 5’8″ but my daughter uses it as well and she is right at 5′ – I have just written down the numbers from the various pieces and can adjust it in like 2 minutes.. easy
Looks like four necessary adjustments: handlebar height and reach, seat height and fore/aft position. Should be able to mark your preferred positions and adjust in like 30 seconds. The tricky bit is the crank length because the pedals need to be removed and reinstalled. That doesn’t take long with a nice (long) wrench, but would be a bit more of a hassle. Some people are sensitive to crank length and others are not but you have a big difference between you two. I would recommend 175mm for you and 165 for her so may be awkward to compromise and you… Read more »
It’s simple. In fact, that’s one of the main reasons I chose this bike over a trainer. My wife and 12 yo son both use it and we just move the seat up and down. That takes 3 seconds. The seat post has numbers on it and it’s easy to remember what your specific number is. I have the handlebars set up in a more aggressive position than they would generally prefer, but they just leave that alone when they ride and it doesn’t bother them at all.
I owned this for a while and while the whole bike is well built the resistance changes in Zwift are awful, and are like hitting a wall and falling off a cliff when going up and down hills.
I’ve had one for 18 months and haven’t experienced that issue unless suddenly hitting a steep gradient. The only issue I’ve had was with the app, but they finally built a new one and it works much better. It’s a nice solid unit and the gearing system (need to use your phone to see the gearing) is VERY flexible and seemless. I’ve talked two friends into getting one.
I had this for exactly one race when I bought it…you have to change the trainer difficulty to 50% on zwift…then all good.
I live in the Netherlands unfortunately the bike is not delivered here
Want mine?
I got myself a kicker bike v2, much better. Did 36000 Zwift km on the SB20. Phone is required to visualize gears, quite annoying. Workout don’t work well with Zwift, too much lag.
Any prices for outside the US – eg the UK please?
No joy in Canada either, it seems 🙁
OK, this just makes me mad! I’m in Canada and bought an SB20 shortly after it was released — for almost $5000 CAD! There was only one store in Toronto that had one, and yeah, beggars can’t be choosers. That said, I can wholeheartedly recommend this bike to anyone, and at $1400 it’s a total no-brainer steal of a deal. The thing is built like a tank (rock solid during all-out sprinting) and I’ve had exactly zero problems after 7600km of Zwifting (i.e. approximate width of Canada). Nifty bonus — it takes up way less length than a regular bike… Read more »
I have the same issue Dave. I bought mine last year for full price ($3100). But that’s the way of the world. If you can wait, prices for things (other than eggs and gas), typically come down over time. That being said, I love my SB20 and just ordered a second for our cottage under this latest deal. I’ve never had a problem with it either. The free Zwift account for my wife, is a nice touch.
Please make this deal available for europe
Moi aussi j’aimerais bien pouvoir l’acheter au Canada avec ce prix et Zwift pendant un an svp. Veuillez me contacter
On va s’en chercher un au USA !? 😉
I have had an SB20 for about 18 months also and love it. It’s easily adjustable and almost maintenance free. I just hop on and go, every time. The best fitness purchase I’ve made in years. I use it hard, mostly competitive B racing, 3-5 days a week. It is a tank, and doesn’t budge when riding, so people who like rocking will probably find it stiff. But the great features of this machine are endless. Customer service, if needed, is quick via email. It’s too bad it’s not available in other countries. Stages needs to fix that immediately.
Had my SB20 since November. Out of the crate and hooked up in 30minutes! Awesome bike!
The sensitivity to inclines compared to my Kickr Core was a bit of a shock to the legs ;0)
Is this one year of Zwift for existing accounts or only for new accounts?
Both. It’s a promo code that can be applied to any account.
Shame the deal isn’t available in the Netherlands, missed opportunity …..
As someone who paid $1799 for this (and without a Zwift promo) back in November on a Black Friday deal, I’m a little bummed to see this, but it’s an incredible deal and I wholeheartedly recommend this kit. It’s been a game changer.
Too bad no love for canucks. Sweet deal 😉
Jumped on it today tp upgrade from my Kickr. Thanks!
I’m sorry I saw the deal on fb someone post and I didn’t use the affiliate link here I actually feel terrible about it.
Just ordered One. thank you for the link. 500 saving plus a free year of Zwiftm sweet deal 🙂 Ride on
Hello, I ordered one on Friday, what a great deal. Has anyone ordered and received it already, Just trying to get an idea on ship times (I know they’ll vary by location, but Amazon has ruined me for shipping times :))
Had a friend who ordered one in California. Arrived maybe 4 business days later?
Wow, that’s really quick for freight. Thanks for the info!
Is it available this deal I mean in the uk
