Peloton Cross Training Bike+ review: A better connected bike that still demands a premium price
Peloton's new bikes do more to warrant the space they take up in your home.
Peloton has released its latest fitness equipment, the Cross Training Bike+, a more advanced and connected bike that comes with a steep price tag. The bike combines AI-infused training programs and movement tracking with hardware improvements such as an adjustable fan, a smartphone tray, and a tracking camera built into the console.
The 23.8-inch screen can rotate away from the bike, allowing users to utilize the screen for floor workouts, strength exercises, and stretch classes. The bike also features Sonos-tuned speakers with a built-in woofer, a USB-C plug-in fan unit, and a redesigned saddle that is wider and more cushioned. The built-in camera is used for coaching, form correction, and rep counting, making the bike more than just a connected exercise bike.
The bike also tracks workouts and generates personalized metrics and goals. However, the camera does not offer movement tracking coaching for yoga or other specialized classes. The bike comes with a $2,695 price tag and a $50 monthly All-Access Membership fee.
