Why Peloton Weight Matters
- Floor Support: Heavier bikes may require stronger flooring, especially in upstairs rooms.
- Shipping & Delivery: Most shipping companies use freight services due to the high weight.
- Moving & Installation: Two people are recommended for safe moving; built-in wheels help with room-to-room transport.
- User Weight Limit: Peloton bikes support up to 297 lb (135 kg) rider weight; exceeding this may void the warranty.
Tip: Always measure doorways and staircases before moving a Peloton to avoid last-minute hassles!
Peloton Packaging and Shipping Considerations
- Packaged Weight: Expect an extra 10–15 lb due to the box, foam, and protective packaging.
- Shipping Method: Peloton typically ships via freight with in-home delivery and setup for most new purchases.
- Moving Services: For used bikes, LTL (less-than-truckload) freight or professional moving companies are recommended. Shipping costs vary by region and provider.
