This is EXTREMELY helpful! As a first time cyclist, I had no idea what I was doing even after replaying the peloton intro 6 times... thank you!
We tackled assembling the bike as a family project. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The package is heavy, but I have 2 teen boys that were able to move it. The written instructions were great- we didn't need to watch the videos, but it was good knowing that the option was there if we needed it. After we were able to get it set up, the boys each rode 3 miles and I rode 8 and the bike stayed quiet. The display is easy to reset, and you can put it on whichever setting you are using (time, distance, calories, etc). I will say that my butt is a little sore from the seat, but that could be because I haven't rode in a while. While it is comfortable for me, it was not comfortable with the seat position for my friend (could not move the seat back far enough and he slightly looked like a kid riding a tricycle that he had outgrown). He also said that the seat hurt his manly parts. We are going to look for a different seat that will be compatible with this bike for him.I did purchase the Wahoo Cadence sensor and strapped it to the crank of one of the pedals. This will sync with my Apple Watch, iPhone and will import data in to my Health app. Wahoo does have other sensors available other than cadence. I can also keep either my phone or my iPad on the display and they both feel pretty secure.
the seat is not super comfortable. you can get a gel seat cover from amazon that will help!
This is the only video I've watched that shows how to clip in and then get out. Thank you!
Okay but why was this so much more helpful than the instructions they give 😭 thank u
so happy it was helpful for you!
I've had my Peloton for over a year and I use it 4 times a week. That being said I never used my shoes more than once because it was a pain to detach. Thank you for making it so easy.
so happy it was helpful for you!
This is FAR better than the Peloton official video!!!! Thank you!!
Thank you!!! I get my bike in a couple days and I literally have never cycled before so this was so informative! All of it.
Thank you! Ours arrives tomorrow and the tips for unclipping are so helpful!
Girl..... I just got my bike. This video is so helpful. I really didn't know how to position the seat. Thank you.

so happy it was helpful for you!

You're a lifesaver, I just got a peloton, and was ready to return it cus I couldn't quire understand the set up videos. Peloton and I owe you a world of thanks.
I'm so happy it was helpful for you!
Great video! Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you for this!! I just set mine up:)
Thank you I love the bike I couldn’t unclip thank you good info
thank you so much for your beginner video.!!!!
Super helpful. Thanks for taking the time!!
I'm glad it was helpful for you!
Thank you so much for this video!!
`Thank you for the tip about the shoes!
Thank you! I have such a hard time getting my cleats off. This is a perfect way.
so happy it was helpful for you!
Great, info, thank you. One question - having a really hard time clipping in, would you recommend adjusting the tension on the pedal a bit?
Great video! Thanks 😊
Hi! Great video! One question. I don’t understand the seating position. When you show it and adjust it in the video, it looks the same as before you moved the seat. 3:04 of the video shows your form after moving the seat back, but your knee is still far past your ankle while extending the opposite leg. I just want to make sure I’m still riding correctly and trying to get my knee directly over my ankle has been tricky
Thank you for this video!
Thank you. This was VERY helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. Good video. Very helpful.
This was PERFECT! Thank you!!! #SpinningTunes
the underside of the pedal has an Allen key bolt adjustment for the tension on the clip....just loosen the pedal clip in the direction of that bolt by turning it with the Allen key...
that's a great tip - thank you!
Great video tutorial
Great Video Thank you, I will be getting my Bike tomorrow
excited for you! you're going to love it :)
Excellent! Nice job!
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much!! This was ssssoooooo helpful!
so happy it was helpful for you!
My wife just got a pelaton... I have a road bike... thinking about riding her pelaton...but that seat looks absolutely brutal...took me months to find a great saddle!
Also, you can adjust the tension of your clipless pedals with the allen wrench supplied by pelaton.. but you're right...even with the least of tension, it is difficult to get out of!!
Hi, great video. I’ll definitely be using some of your tips. I still seem to have an issue with my clip placement. My left foot feels comfortable but I just cannot get my right foot to feel as comfortable as the left. Any tips for clip placement? Thanks.❤️
you mean the clips screwed into the bottom of your shoes? I would take them to a bike shop - they can help you find the perfect position
Thank you!
THANK YOU!!!
Very helpful!
Glad you think so!
Thank you 😊
great advice. Thank you so much. Trying to find a class for a newbie who is 70+. Any suggestions?
they have beginners classes! i would definitely start there
Thank you! I almost killed myself trying to unhook my dang shoe. Also, when does my bottom adjust to the seat pain??? I wanted to ride a second day in a row, but I literally can't sit. Does this mean my bike isn't set up properly? Thanks!
Me too! I had to change my seat for a wider padded one I couldn't get used to the original one, I felt somewhat violated...
I switched the stock seat on my bike for a Terry butterfly gel saddle. So much better...
I use iFit with a ProForm bike. What is the difference between iFit and Peloton’s Studio classes?
Thank you! This was very helpful.😊
happy to hear it was helpful for you!
Best fit video
How tall are you?
Hi! I am having so much trouble trying to adjust the seat. They just won’t budge for some reason even after I turned them the right way. I was wondering if you could help
did you loosen the knob the entire way?
Better than the Peloton 101 videos.
How do we feel about just leaving the shoes clipped on all the time and just leaving them there? Is that weird?
i don't think it's weird! don't see a prob with it.
Awesome video thanks much ....I’m sitting by my door... my bike comes TODAY😊😊😊😊😊😊😘
Have fun! You'll love it!
Thanks for video. 13 seat height seems low for you, the knee bends too much at 6 o’clock
when i go higher, my knee locks and it feels uncomfortable. 13 is a good spot for me :)
Don't watch this, her instructions are all wrong. Her seat is way too low and her seat is too far back. Bad advise.
Hi, what am I doing wrong if my entire ass is going numb?
Try a gel bike seat cover! Also your seat my be too low, putting too much pressure down there
Loosen the clips from the clip mechanism, don’t do what she shows lol.
this woman has no idea what she's talking about. Her seat is way too low and way to far back.
