When budgeting for the Bike+, note that it requires a $39-monthly Peloton All-
Access membership, which gives you access to live and on-demand workout
classes, performance tracking, and the ability to set up an unlimited number of

supplement your cycling sessions, including barre, bootcamp, HIIT cardio,
meditation, outdoor running, running, strength training, stretching, and yoga.


At the time of this writing, Peloton says Bike+ delivery times may exceed 10
weeks. The good news is that once you place your order, Peloton will give you
free access to its app until the bike arrives, so you can take bodyweight strength,
outdoor running, and yoga classes on your phone or tablet.

process couldn’t have been better. A representative from Peloton’s third-party
logistics partner called me a couple of days ahead of time to schedule a delivery
window. On the day of the appointment, the technicians arrived on time
(wearing masks), carried the bike into my house, placed it in my preferred
location, plugged it in, made sure it turned on, and walked me through the
setup process. They stood by as I connected the bike to my Wi-Fi network and
created an account, then a technician showed me how to rotate the screen (you
have to make sure it’s fully erect and not tilted before you can rotate it from side
to side), adjust the bike to my proportions, navigate the software interface, and
hang my shoes on the bike rack to dry when not in use.
