The pandemic helped Peloton gain further market traction, with more people opting for at-home fitness. Capitalizing on this growth, the Peloton Tread (a smart treadmill) was released in early 2021. Today, Peloton has 2.33 million connected fitness subscribers, with an annual retention rate of over 92%.

Peloton is often credited with kick-starting the trend of connected fitness: streamed, on-demand home workouts that aim to replicate a traditional studio experience, including live group workouts, the ability to follow a favorite instructor, and a built-in community, but without the stress of scheduling and commuting.

Peloton has approximately 6 million worldwide subscribers. 90% of members keep their membership for more than one year.

Peloton Members stick with it: 92% of households are still active a year later.

Each Bike is equipped with hall effect sensors for measuring flywheel rotational speed (to capture cadence) and resistance. The sensors reference the Output values on the sensor control board and communicate these values to the Peloton HD touchscreen multiple times per second during a ride.

In a road bicycle race, the peloton (from French, originally meaning 'platoon') is the main group or pack of riders. Riders in a group save energy by riding close (drafting or slipstreaming) to (particularly behind) other riders.

In French, "peloton" literally means "ball," but it is most often used with the meaning "group." It's frequently used in the bicycling context, just as in English, but it can also refer to a group in a marathon or other sporting event.

Peloton bike users in the U.S. 2021, by age In the 2021 fiscal year, approximately 29 percent of all Peloton bike users in the United States were aged between 25 and 34, while only two percent were aged 65 or older.

For some members, it's being able to ride at any time of the day. For others, a Peloton Bike is worth the cost when you have the convenience of a personal trainer right in your basement. And for some, it's the expense of multiple fitness classes replaced with one Peloton Membership that makes it worth the money.
