At least we might see less of the douchey peleton advert. I’m hoping Apple comes out with one since they’ve just announced that fitness thing then peleton can be wiped off the map

Peloton “north of 1000”. Try 2000. Way to make peloton sound less expensive than they really are.
So amazon bike is really ~75% off. That is major.

Like they did with Kirby Vaccuum cleaners. Cost them $400, maybe $500 to make, tried to sell them for $2000.

$500 and access to live classes is pretty much a declaration of war on Peloton.
