Vicious Cycle

Fantastic experience: Amazing studio with great rides! They've expenses their services and now also provide reformer classes and infrared saunas

Negative experience: Refuses to take me off their mailing list and spams stupid emails daily.

Negative experience: terrible service. don’t waste your time here / buying packages. Thanks

Negative experience: I called at 5:30pm wanting to ask if I can still join the class (that’s the start time of the class), no one answered the phone. I was 6 minutes behind schedule, no one was at the desk for service, and I waited for a few more minutes for staff. No one came. Once I finally found the classroom and opened the door, I was immediately told in front of full classroom of people I cannot come in and to shut the door, no one was there to explain anything or any customer service. Please do not give me an explanation about being a first timer etc. You should at least pick up the phone or have a staff with customer service skills to explain what is going on. Not just yelling through a microphone telling me I can’t come in.

Negative experience: I arrived at 7:22 for a 7:30 class and waited at the reception while the staff handled the person in front of me, which took quite a while. At 7:25, when it was my turn, the receptionist informed me that, as a first-timer, I was considered late and refused to let me in, stating that I should have arrived 10 minutes early, despite having 5 minutes remaining. She was quite rude and offered no alternatives, simply citing the policy. If she had managed the people in front of me more quickly, I would have made it on time. Her handling of the situation didn’t make sense—she could have consulted with the instructors or offered other solutions. Given the early hour and the distance I traveled, it was particularly disappointing to be turned away while others were still arriving after me. This experience was very frustrating, and based on it, I would not recommend this for first-timers.

Fantastic experience: Always the best and pleasant experience! Instructors were amazing. Deffo 10/10

Fantastic experience: Shout out to the amazing instructors at VC. Tom, Elena & Denis - always great sessions, really motivating and push you to bring your A-game. Special mention to Elizabeth who brings incredible energy and enthusiam to her classes. Insane playlist vibes every week, bringing electrifying beats and not afraid to drop the DnB bangers that work so well in these classes. Keep up the good work, guys!

Positive experience: I have tried the classes in Melbourne and Sydney. Both of them were great. Melbourne has better facilities for sure and I feel like it’s more organised. Personally I prefer the one in Melbourne more. I checked the website and it said bring your own towels if you are going to the SYD studio. I brought mine and turned out there were towels which was still fine. But I was quite shocked when I discovered there was no locker lock and you’ll need to bring your own lock which was the first time for me. Maybe they mentioned it somewhere and I missed it But I think a locker with a built-in lock is more important than towels.. Other than that, friendly staff and instructors!

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaching team, great vibe and fantastic location. Highly recommend to spin veterans and novices

Fantastic experience: Fantastic spin studio, great classes and teachers! Morgan is phenomenal!

Fantastic experience: Amazing spin classes and such a good work out. All instructors are well trained and always happy to see you. Loyally go 3-4 times a week and wouldn’t change a thing

Fantastic experience: Reasonably priced, centrally located, great vibes from the many different team members. Would love more socialising though.

Fantastic experience: Having moved to Sydney from NYC (former Peloton-er and Soul Cycle-er) I was looking forward to finding a studio here that had great vibes, energizing music, and killer sweat seshies. This studio is all that and more-- newly renovated, fun ambient lighting, roomy, and the staff is so friendly and quickly remembered my name. The instructors and the front desk staff make it a point to get to know their regulars. I look forward to every class!

Negative experience: Dissatisfactory treatment and no compensation for their mistakes

Fantastic experience: Loved this studio! High intensity cardio experience in conjunction with fun movements - awesome! I visited Dennis’ and Mae’s class - love it, will come back in the future

Positive experience: excellent place to burn all of those food! Good for you who wants cardio but can’t survive the treadmill like me.

Positive experience: Truly world class spin experience! The instructors are not only expert DJ's but really craft the choreography around the music. The lighting effects and mirrors in the studio make for a great atmosphere too. Bikes are high quality and shoe rental is included in the price of a class. I love the meditation portion at the end too, really great addition to the cooldown. This studio is especially focused on their community, which is really wonderful for someone who is new to the city. Only issue I've experienced is that sitting in the corners near the speakers will absolutely damage your eardrums. Granted, the studio does have earplugs for this reason, but they are not always at the bikes. Sometimes you don't realize the volume is harmful until partway through class and it becomes a challenge / disruptive to leave the room in darkness to fetch the earplugs, and come back on your bike in the middle of a song. I simply just know to avoid those spots and try to remember to bring my own earplugs just in case, but they really should be at those bikes for each class.

Fantastic experience: Best rhythm cycle class in Sydney

Fantastic experience: Lovely place with great vibes. Welcoming the morning with a great workout, ending it off with meditation to increase our mindfulness and awareness for the day. Love it. Thanks for the great assistance at the desk for my class registration as well! Kudos!

Fantastic experience: Vicious is the best place to cycle in Sydney! The instructors are the best and always make you feel like family. It’s a great work out and the bikes are fantastic

Fantastic experience: I trialled Vicious Cycle (VC) for a week and absolutely loved it - so I ended up jumping on a membership. Love the energy in which Camilla and the rest of the team bring to each and every session. I would highly recommend and encourage anyone considering mixing up their fitness regime to give VC a go.

Fantastic experience: Great instructors, classes are always fun and the studio is clean. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Despite the name (vicious) everyone there are really nice , and it's such a fun way to exercise. I go for the evening sessions after work, and feels like ending the day with a blast. I really wish there were more mid days classes (currently only Fridays) , so I can come on my lunch breaks

Fantastic experience: I don’t like cardio generally, so for me a class really needs to be exciting and fun. Vicious Cycle delivered a really fun and engaging cardio workout that I actually didn’t want to end because I enjoyed it so much the facilities are super nice and clean too!

Fantastic experience: Such a great workout - cardio but also includes some light weights. Friendly for all levels, as a beginner i felt very welcomed.

Fantastic experience: Have been a member for 10months and absolutely love this community! It’s such a fantastic workout and never gets boring because the instructors change it up literally every class.. the choreography and soundtrack is never repeated and it’s just such a fun vibe! Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Phenomenal workout For those looking for a SoulCycle equivalent in Sydney this is it! Alicia is world class

Fantastic experience: Such a fun experience, Natalie is such a great trainer and so motivating

Fantastic experience: Amazing little spin studio, perfectly situated in the CBD! Great staff, great music, amazingly well-crafted classes that are challenging but fun and Alicia is just the best spin instructor I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting and riding with! If you want inspiration, passion, motivation and probably a few swear words - she is your gal and this is your studio I couldn’t recommend enough!! (Oh, and there is often a cute puppy there too - bonus)

Fantastic experience: LOVE Vicious! The workout is great but the instructors are even better - so friendly, welcoming, and inclusive. Naomi and Tim are amazing so be sure to join their classes. I was new to spin when I started going to Vicious with a friend, and now I’ve been going for nearly 2 years!

Fantastic experience: Enjoyable ride this am with Sam who was fun and high energy! A very comparable experience to Soul Cycle for those looking for something similar in Sydney.

Fantastic experience: Tried this a few weeks ago and loved it. Great to change the routine. Shane is my fav teacher, his energy is beautiful and his mindfulness bit at the end always keep resonating to me for the rest of the day!

Fantastic experience: Booked a lunchtime class on a whim this morning and didn't regret it! The energy was great the whole time, and despite the fact that I'm not great at hearing instructions in most group classes I was able to follow along the whole time with ease. Got sweaty, got tired, got pumped! I left feeling great, even though the stairs on the way out nearly slew me. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: I love love love Vicious Cycle - the instructors are so warm & welcoming and you really do feel like you're part of a community because of the friendly atmosphere. I did Boom Cycle when living in London but I feel like I have a far better full body workout at Vicious - I come out of each class like a beetroot and absolutely drenched but I couldn't be happier about that :D Keep up the amazing service x

Fantastic experience: No ego in the room just pure honest fun. Great movement, great music and amazing motivation.

Negative experience: An appalling and dangerous class taught by Tanya. If you are serious about spin, do not waste your time here as it is about 10 years behind the time and I think Tanya needs some training - perhaps she should look at the quality of peleton, cyclebar or flywheel for some tips. The class and the teacher were all free wheeling most of the time and more worried about doing upper body and clapping and continuously jumping around with hands off the bike and swapping all over the place - is this safe - I do not think so. It may create some sort of cardio workout but there is no need to bother with a bike. Bikes are basic - think those cheap spin bikes you remember of 10 years ago - so no rpm, watt output or any monitoring. I have never seen a teacher go so fast free wheeling though! Studio is basic and hot - maybe trying to copy soul cycle and pretend that working. Really do not waste your money here - a spin at fitness first is better - perhaps I was unlucky with an incompetent teacher and who was not particularly strong fitness wise as she didn't make much effort on the bike and was fairly dull (guess her knowledge is years out of date). Well she wandered out of the room at one point! Now if you want a good experience, I recommend Erin at Infinite cycle or even better Scenic cycle where the set up is competent. Scenic cycle has the best bikes - Schwinn and which track everything. Erin is an amazing teacher and so enthusiastic and works hard herself and actually knows what she is doing. Avoid Vicious and look up Erin's classes at Scenic Cycle and you will be so much happier.

Fantastic experience: Teachers are great, the work out is intense and full and you leave the room with and awesome energy ready to kick off the day! My best sydney cycling class so far!

Fantastic experience: Incredible workout, amazing music, and awe-inspiring instructors! By far the best rhythm-riding cycle club you will find in Sydney.

Positive experience: Instructor was great, music was great, hate that they ask you to do a spin class without clipping into a bike (that's probably dangerous!).

Fantastic experience: The closest thing to Soulcycle in Sydney.

Fantastic experience: Such a Great workout and atmosphere! Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Love coming here 4-5 times a week during my lunch break! Tanya and Danni, who usually take the lunchtime classes, do an amazing job at making sure everyone is ok and set up properly before the class starts. They do an even better job at motivating the class during to make sure everyone gets the workout they came for!

Fantastic experience: Really awesome classes. Great for the body and for the mind : )

Fantastic experience: Great work out and lots of fun!:)

Fantastic experience: Fun class. Amazing staff!

Fantastic experience: There is absolutely nothing like vicious cycle! Not only is the music sensational & the atmosphere cool & almost night- club-like, but the instructors are super motivational and inspiring and totally dedicated to making sure we get the most out of each and every class! I really look forward to my spin classes at vicious cycle, as they are the most enjoyable way to get fit, and be inspired to do so, whilst having fun and feeling like you're not really exercising!
