In addition, it is unlawful for any person to sell, offer for sale, or distribute a product that is subject to a product recall. Peloton encourages you to determine whether any used Bike sold through a third-party platform is subject to Peloton’s voluntary recall of the original Peloton Bike seat post here.

How much should I pay for a used Peloton Bike?
Resellers determine their own prices. Resale prices often vary depending on characteristics such as condition and age.
How should I assess the condition of a used Peloton Bike?
Test ride the Bike in person, if you can. If you can’t, reviewing videos is better than pictures, especially via a video call. Here are some things you should take into consideration when deciding whether to purchase a second-hand Peloton Bike or Bike+:
-
Check that all components are present and authentic.
- Make sure that the seat and pedals are authentic Peloton equipment. Look for the Peloton Logo on the top of the seat and the Peloton wordmark on the top of the pedals.
- Check for labels, so you can have access to the Bike’s serial number and identifying information, should you ever need to call in a repair or service call. You should find a warning label and a product label.

- Peloton Bike Only: Check to see if the used Peloton Bike was impacted by the recall and sold in the US between January 2018 & May 2023 with a PL-01 model number on the product label and a red “P” logo followed by the white-colored "Peloton" brand name on the bike frame. If so, please check to see whether it has the updated seat post, or if you have purchased a Peloton Bike with an old seat post and still need a new seat post, please visit this page to obtain your free replacement seat post.

- How many people have regularly used it?
- How many workouts have been taken on the Bike?
Can the seller transfer over the Bike warranty to me?
Peloton’s Limited Warranty is not transferable and is only applicable to the original Bike owner. Peloton’s Protection Plans sold after April 5, 2022 are transferable. If you are purchasing a previously-owned Peloton product that advertises including a Protection Plan, request and retain the Protection Plan order confirmation from the original owner in the event you require future service under this plan. Confirm that the plan was purchased on or after April 5, 2022
Can I purchase a Protection Plan if I am the second owner?
No, only the original owner is eligible to purchase a Protection Plan.
How do I go about moving the Bike?
Here are relocation tips that provide more information about how to safely disassemble and move your Bike.
