Spin classes cost $30/month at spin studios. The people going to those classes are Peloton's target market, not the people content to spin at the local 24 hour fitness.

What city are you in? Here in Portland, spin classes are more than double that. I think Peloton's market overlap is a combination of people who would sign up for Spin classes at a dedicated studio, people who would sign up for Spin classes at a nice gym that gives them as part of a membership, and people who think cycling is a good workout and have high disposable income, but no desire to join a real class or gym of any kind.
It's obviously not for people like me who would happily buy a set of used free weights for a few hundred bucks if I had a garage or basement.
