Merge it with Apple Fitness. Incorporate it with the apple ecosystem. I think the brand fits together. Prices will still be stupidly high.

Thoughts?

      SpacsHtr - that’s a really stoopid question.

      Hmmm and yet Apple hasn't released any fitness hardware.

    Peloton is stupidly valued right now, apple probably believes they can do better with a lot less money

      Beats in my opinion was a much bigger acquisition than peloton. Beats was wildly regarded as the largest fashion brand headphones and people were willing to throw stupid money to buy poor sounding headphones. The brand itself has hype and other headphones manufacturers could not really compete with that type of hype

      Peloton on the other hand doesn’t have that kind of hype. Also it’s just an exercise bike with fitness videos. Apple already nailed apple fitness+ for the videos, they can always send partner with a smaller company or acquire a smaller company to build the bikes with screens and add apple fitness to that

      Prestige- why will the rich people (millennial tech and finance bros with hot wives and stupidly awesome benefits) buy another apple bike when they all have a 3K peloton installed in their home.

    People have died using Peloton in the past. Apple wouldn’t want that on its hands if it were to occur in the future. It’s a fitness equipment and they have far deeper ramifications than phones and computers. Peloton even had to recall their treadmills.

      I bet their car division is still fixated on this particular thing that eventually people will die directly from an Apple product, and as for an iPhone, only if it explodes and causes severe life threatening burns it can be considered a direct cause. When did apple or Samsung ever get the blame if a victim was on the phone and crashed the car.

    • Apple has a Maps product. That’s a service that could kill you…

  • At least then my peloton stock position will have a chance to recover

  • Wrong tech company. Google should buy them.
