That's more than I pay to use the gym.
Add in a startup fee and it would be a gym membership.
people work out without paying $200+/month to go to the gym :)
You could not go to a gym for 3 years and your membership fees would still cost you less than the $2000 bike, let alone the monthly subscription.
Note that people pay to waste their energy in gyms.
Gym memberships don't cost the gym more everytime people use them.
Cheaper than paying for the gym.
There is a major chain of fitness gyms that charges you more the less often you come in.
People are used to paying $100+/mo for a Gym, if Peloton can convince them to work out at home thats worth the $2500 they charge every 3 years or so. They can make the equipment free or cheap with multi-year subscriptions.
Your workout costs money. The other workout is free.
