Peloton, the online cycle fitness platform has opened a retail showroom in Harrods.
The home-based workout platform, which provides workouts linked to its stationary connected Peloton cycles and treadmills, has opened the showroom on the fifth floor technology department at Harrod’s department store in Knightsbridge.
The space will provide consumers with the chance to experience Peloton’s suite of connected fitness products including the Peloton Bike, Peloton Bike+ and Peloton Tread.
Peloton said the space will incorporate private trial rooms, as well as a main area all set up for product demonstrations.
To complement the experience, consumers will be able to shop the latest Peloton apparel and accessories, including a selection of items that will be exclusive to Harrods’ customers at launch in the UK.
Peloton is leading the market in connected, technology-enabled fitness, and introduced its indoor Bike and online classes to a U.S. audience in 2014 before expanding internationally from 2018, launching in the UK and Canada, and then in Germany in 2019.
