The Peloton brand is as synonymous with interactive interactive exercise bikes as Garmin is to bike computers. It goes to show how popular the brand has become, and following a rather aggressive marketing campaign where smiley, happy, sweaty riders were projected on to our TV screens, it's now firmly a household name. 

That's not to say that the brand are the only one's at it, in fact there is a healthy and growing number of options, and this page is dedicated to helping you find the best Peloton alternatives. 

You can trust Cycling Weekly. Our team of experts put in hard miles testing cycling tech and will always share honest, unbiased advice to help you choose. Find out more about how we test.
