i dont like stationary bikes really because they usually dont get to the resistance i want in time...
Spink bikes have the knob on the top that you can adjust quickly and feel the tension quickly besides waiting for the machine to get there.
Treadmills, typically are faster for gtting to speeds/resistances then stationary bikes. Treadmill also pools alot more of the blood to the legs and you born more calories as well

HIIT can also be preformed by supersetting with weights.

I like to do HIIT at home on the bike (the ones with a free adjusting resistance knob) every so often, but I wouldn't recommend doing it on a treadmill. It doesn't seem practical to try to sprint on a treadmill.

Well its HIIT no matter which way you slice it. The stair stepper in my opinion is the ultimate hiit.
