[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gullible people desperate to lose weight buy them.  They love them for a while!  They live for the leaderboards, stats, and shout outs. It’s no different than likes on social media.  Instant feel good hormones.  Peloton knows this. Then, they become expensive clothes holders. Just like every other piece of fad exercise equipment.  As a CPT it makes me sad.   They could do exactly the same thing by riding an actual bike or just buying a cheap stationary.  A fool and his money……[/quote]

Of course it's POSSIBLE to do that.   That's like saying people will never go to starbucks because you can get coffee at 7-11.   Buy a 20 year old car and not a Mercedes because it's just transportation.  People are willing to pay more for an experience.

The expensive clothes holder is such a played out reference.   I am four years in, use it 5+ days a week, on my second bike and there's nothing else like it.  2.5 million users, 450 million workouts last year, average of almost 4 workouts a week.  [/quote]

Same, I broke down and got one last spring, I just adore it and use it every day. I feel GREAT afterwards, it literally lifts my mood 100%. I don't want to go back to OTF and I find going to Planet Fitness (where my DH goes) just a depressing grind and also, have to drive there, look presentable, share equipment, etc. [/quote]

+1. 16 months with it, even if I never got on it again (which will not happen) it would still be worth every penny. I use it all the time, first fitness kick I've ever been on that I've been so consistent with.[/quote]

Same![/quote]
