"When we launched Peloton, we knew we were onto something special. Now, eight years later, we have a passionate global community of 2.6 million Members, and we feel like we're just getting started, in terms of how we can impact the health and well-being of people worldwide through our platform, content and products," said John Foley, Peloton's CEO and Co-founder. "Our goal is to be the go-to at-home fitness solution for as many people as possible, and with these new product launches, we'll be able to offer access to Peloton's best-in-class fitness content at various price points, depending on what consumers are looking for, especially in a world where people are increasingly working out at home."
The Peloton Bike+: A total body workout experience
The Peloton Bike+ builds on the innovation of the original Peloton Bike and includes some of the most Member-requested hardware and software features and class content. Thoughtfully designed to create a challenging total body workout, the Bike+ makes it easier to complement an indoor cycling class with Peloton's strength, yoga, stretching and meditation classes - all from the Bike+.
Peloton also introduces Bike Bootcamp, a new class format available to all Peloton Members, starting September 15. An elite lineup of fitness instructors, including Peloton's VP of Fitness Programming and Head Instructor Robin Arzón, Tread instructor Jess Sims, and Director of Cycling Cody Rigsby, will guide Members through a motivating total body workout, integrating strength training with Peloton's well-known cardio programming for a dynamic workout on and off the Bike+.
The Peloton Bike+ features:
- 23.8" rotating HD touchscreen: Seamlessly transition between cycling and floor-based workouts. The screen rotates 180 degrees left and right for easy viewing.
- High-fidelity four-speaker sound system: Clearer sound and quality for a more intense Instructor connection.
- Gymkit™: With just a tap, pair your Apple Watch® with the Bike+ to keep your metrics in sync.
- Auto-Follow: Stay focused on your workout with a touch-free, optional adjustment that automatically scales your resistance, based on Target Metrics. Throughout the class, the digitally-controlled resistance remembers where you fall within the Target Metrics and automatically adjusts based on instructor guidance, allowing you to fully lose yourself in the class.
Marking the first multi-territory product launch for the company, the Peloton Bike+ is available in the U.S., U.K., Canada and Germany. Owners of the original Peloton Bike in the U.S. are eligible to trade in Peloton Bikes in working condition and receive a $700 credit towards Bike+, the Yoga & Toning accessories package and a complimentary haul away of their current Peloton Bike. The trade-in program will be available starting September 9, 2020 and you can find more information here.
The all new Peloton Tread: A complete running and strength workout
The new Peloton Tread combines a modern design with Peloton's compelling running and strength training content. The Tread has the fundamental elements of Tread+, like the control knobs and jump buttons, that make it easier for athletes at every fitness level to achieve their goals with intense total body workouts.
The Peloton Tread features:
- 23.8" HD touchscreen with integrated speakers: Transition seamlessly between the Tread and the floor during your workout. The screen tilts up and down 50 degrees, so you can have the best possible view and sound, bringing you even closer to Instructors.
- Designed to fit your daily routine: Tread measures smaller than most couches at 68" L x 33" W x 62" H and fits comfortably in most homes.
- Thoughtfully designed running platform: Tread has no front shroud, typically found in traditional belt treadmills, which creates an unencumbered training environment free of obstacles.
The Peloton Tread will be available for purchase in the U.K. on December 26, 2020, in the U.S. and Canada in early 2021, and in Germany later in 2021.
