Peloton exercise bikes are the best we've ever tested and there is up to $700 discounts in these brilliant Peloton Bike deals
We love the Peloton Bike range, it's nothing short of excellent. So if you're feeling inspired by the Giro d'Italia, Peloton's genuinely game-changing app can motivate you to channel your inner Tadej Pogačar in a safe and controlled way.
US fitness giant Peloton has been around since 2012, and is a market leader when it comes to the best indoor exercise equipment. This includes its renowned Peloton Bike, which we rated as the best indoor exercise bike we've ever tested. Our testing and Peloton review are on par with reviews, and the Peloton bike has over 24,000 reviews on the Peloton site, with an average rating of 4.7 stars out of 5.
Right now, Peloton is offering some brilliant reductions, including its flagship Peloton Bike+, which is $700 off the $2,700 RRP. The $2,000 price tag is the cheapest we've seen this year.
If you've been watching the Giro d'Italia, maybe feeling inspired to attempt to replicate the incredible performance of the world's best professional cyclists, including Giro Stage One winner — the former Men's World Champion, Mads Pedersen or the Tour de France winner and 2024 Giro champion Tadej Pogačar — then now might be the time to invest in a Peloton bike.

With 1000's of cardio-based workouts and live classes led by its expert instructors, you can ride safely within your limits. The Peloton bike also comes equipped with a touchscreen display, immersive sound, and real-time performance tracking, helping you monitor your heart rate and fitness progress effectively and in the comfort of your own home.
The global Peloton community is huge, meaning users have fellow riders' support, can share milestones, and keep motivated. With interactive leaderboards and the ability to high-five other riders, Peloton keeps new owners connected and inspired on their fitness journey.
We reviewed the Peloton Bike in 2022, awarding it 4.5 out of 5, and our tester, Louise Carey said, "The Peloton Bike is nothing short of excellent. Not only does it feature a refined and robust design that supports you through energetic spin classes, but the Peloton App is a genuine game-changer for those who struggle with workout motivation."
However, one of her biggest complaints was the price, but with these big savings, it becomes a lot more attractive. It's worth mentioning you'll need the Peloton app and a subscription ($40 per month) to access many of the features, including on-demand workouts.
Key features: Brilliant HD touchscreen included, small footprint, on-demand workouts.
Price history: These deals are some of the best prices we've seen and a significant saving well worth a look for Peloton newcomers.
Price comparison: The Peloton Bike+ package is the same price on Amazon at $2,000.
Reviews consensus: Our best exercise bike pick with a healthy discount? Sign us up. At $40, the subscription costs may seem expensive, but it's basically the same as a gym membership, and there are thousands of workouts to choose from. It's also easy to get to grips with and doesn't take up a great deal of space in your home either.
