PRICE HIKES INCOMING: Peloton will begin charging its Bike and Tread customers an extra $250+ for delivery and setup starting Jan 31. On the plus side, you’ll get a free two-month trial of the Peloton app (a $79.98 value) if you order a machine before Jan. 31 to avoid the new fee.
Attention, all wannabe Peloton Wives: You’ve got until the end of the month before the notoriously expensive spin bike and its treadmill counterpart get even more so.
Peloton will soon tack on an extra delivery and setup fee for its flagship Bike and Tread due to “inflation,” the company announced this week. That service is currently included in the machines’ prices but will cost an extra $250 and $350 (respectively) starting Jan. 31, bumping the Bike up to $1,745 and the Tread up to $2,845. Meanwhile, the premium Bike+ will keep its original price of $2,495.
While the Tread has always sat around $2,500 until now, real heads know that price changes aren’t anything new for the original Bike. Peloton slashed its cost twice during the pandemic, first from $2,245 to $1,895 upon the release of the Bike+ in September 2020, then a further $400 to $1,495 last fall in an attempt to appeal to more customers.
In other words, Peloton’s new pricing won’t be its highest ever (at least for the Bike). But it’ll still suck to know you could’ve gotten your machine for hundreds of dollars less had you just placed your order a little sooner.
Buy a Bike or Tread anytime between now and Jan. 30 to avoid the new upcharges. That hustle will also earn you a free two-month trial of the Peloton app (a $79.98 value), which unlocks its massive library of live and on-demand workout classes.
