NEW YORK, Aug. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Peloton
(NASDAQ: PTON) announced the all new Peloton Tread will be
available in the United States,
Canada, and the United Kingdom August
30, and will be available in Germany in fall 2021. The new Peloton Tread
combines Peloton's award-winning content and quality design with
safety features integrated into the experience to create an
efficient and engaging total body workout experience.
"Our goal is to be the go-to fitness solution and the
largest and safest home fitness brand in the world," said
John Foley, Peloton's CEO and
co-founder. "We've worked hard to make sure the new Tread truly
earns its spot in Members' homes. We'll always continue to innovate
our hardware, software and safety features to live up to our
commitment to Member safety and to improving the full Member
experience."
Peloton Tread: The best of running and strength
The
Tread was built from the ground up with elements that make it
easier for athletes at every fitness level to achieve their goals
with motivating total body workouts. Design elements like the
intuitive speed and incline control knobs and jump buttons create a
seamless experience that, combined with Peloton's signature classes
and world-class instructors, redefines what a running-based workout
can be.
Peloton also has an unparalleled content library offering the
best cardio and strength classes led by world-class Instructors.
Joining the elite lineup of fitness instructors are three new
German running instructors who will be introduced soon after the
launch of Tread in the market.
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 while on the
Tread, bringing you even closer to Instructors.
- Designed to fit your daily routine: At 68" L x 33"
W x 62" H, Tread measures smaller than most couches and fits
comfortably in most homes.
- Thoughtfully designed running platform: Tread has a
59" traditional belt to allow for uninterrupted runs.
The Peloton Tread includes the latest in software and hardware
safety features to help Tread owners stay focused on their
workouts, including:
- Tread Lock: A four-digit, digital passcode that
each authorized user will need to enter to unlock the belt before a
workout. All current Peloton Tread owners, both those with an
All-Access Membership and those without, have access to the
Tread Lock safety feature.
- Safety Key: The physical safety key helps a runner come
to a quick stop during a class if needed. The safety key is also
removable so that it can be stored away from the Tread to prevent
unintended use.
- Intuitive design: Every part of the Peloton Tread
is designed to remove any barriers or distractions between runners
and their goals. The speed and incline knobs are conveniently
placed on the side rails, falling within a runner's natural arm
swing so users can simply roll the knobs up or down mid-run to
change the intensity of their workout. Runners can also immediately
stop with an easy to find Stop button.
Customers in the U.S., Canada
and the U.K. will be able to purchase the Peloton Tread on
August 30 for $2,495 USD /$3,295
CAD / £2,295 GBP respectively, and for €2495 EUR in Germany starting in fall 2021. The All-Access
Membership, which enables Members to access Peloton content using
the Peloton Tread, is separate.
Peloton and the CPSC recently announced a free repair available
for the approximately 1,000 Peloton Tread units sold in the U.S. as
part of its pre-launch limited distribution. This repair is also
available for all current Tread owners in the U.K. and Canada. The repair ensures that the
touchscreen will remain securely attached to the Tread. New Treads
sold after today will incorporate these same changes. The Tread
described above is different from the Peloton Tread+ and was only
sold in the US. The Peloton Tread+ was voluntarily recalled on
May 5 and the full details of the
recall can be found here.
