How it's going to work:
- Every few minutes, we're going to release more inventory.
- Shortly, the button below will turn back to yellow (unless we sell out).
- At that point, try adding it to your cart again.
Pro Tip: If that works, checkout as fast as you can. It won't be reserved until you are in checkout. Good luck!

Great alternative to Peloton!
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Had the top of the line EX5-S bike about a week now and really enjoying the ride! Pro's (there are many): -Many adjustment points to get the most comfortable riding position. -Shoes straps so you don't have to buy clip in shoes if you prefer to use sneakers -Bike is HEAVY and feels solid, stay planted even on carpet -Live classes are a great motivator and there's something for all skill levels -The included 21" touchscreen tablet is a big plus - it's bright, and the speakers sound good. -The Echelon Fit app, as far as I can tell, seems to offer all the same features as Peloton. Con's (not deal breakers): -Add more fields to app profile so multiple riders can record their bike adjustment settings -There is no way to turn off the bike - you have to unplug it -App still seems a little glitchy (freezes a lot) but they are constantly pushing updates -Allow Apple Watch connectivity -Bluetooth is just plug and play, but would be nice to expose the pairing function for more control Bottom Line: If you want the Peloton experience for 40% less, buy this bike.

Good bike false advertising
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Bike is great. App is glitchy sometimes but they are working on updates to meet the demand and the echelon community and instructors are awesome! Was supposed to come with 90 day subscription-never received info on how to redeem-spent over an hour on call with Best Buy to report and was told I’d receive a code and never heard back. Did NOT include 90 day subscription.

No More Risky Gyms For Me!
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I no longer have to suffer the pain, hassle, expense and danger of visiting the local gym. My purchase of this bike completed my home training environment for the wife and I. I is so convenient to train at home, and forego the travel to the gym; look for parking; wait for the desire equipment or machine; and hope that it is truly clean before you clean it. And besides you can train at all hours of the day or night (smile). The Echelon bike is a great bike with features that are very close to the Pedeton bike, and the online live classes are excellent. I am very pleased with my purchase. Highly recommend.

Updated Review
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I tried updating my previous review after experiencing issues with the screen out the box, but I want to set the record straight by saying that Echelon was responsive through the process although a little delayed which I'm sure has to do with the growth and expansion of the business. I exchanged the bike and this time I had no issues with the screen. The bike construction is solid and hope to have good experiences with the live classes. There are tons of on demand classes available as well.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Absolutely love this bike. Debated between this and the peloton and honestly you pay extra for peloton just because of the brand. Identical bikes and experience. Love this bike

Loving getting fit.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Love this bike. My wife and I ride everyday. We have our kids ride for 20 mins a day of exercise before they can watch TV. It took some days to get the body adjusted to riding I would suggest in buying bike shorts!

Great Workout
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Girlfriend loves it. Quality is great. Free delivery was a bargain. Pricing better than buying on line. Compact but heavy. Downside is the screen rotation is cumbersome and only works with subscription.
