Goran_K saysthe fat hogs complaining would never have sat on a Peloton
You mean the frame is not strong enough?
I've seen this ad, it's pretty absurd that a woman in perfect shape would want to use a stationary bike so much.Vibrating seat and French Tickler option.

Left attempted extortion again. Business as usual.I have an elliptical and recumbant cycle, right in front of a flat screen telly in a bonus room. Hand weights and a mat for push-ups and sit-ups. I feel like shyte if I go long without exercise. Quit running, but there is nothing like it for that endorphin rush.
Maybe it has removable seats and the husband plans to start a mail order seat sniffer business.
Left hates women who want to look great.
The ad, which has been viewed more than a million times on YouTube, sees a woman receive an exercise bike for Christmas from her husband.
She then records her workouts over the following year in a vlog and presents it to him as a way of saying thank you.
"A year ago, I didn't realise how much this would change me," she says.
The criticism knocked the company's shares, which closed more than 9% lower on Tuesday.
Peloton was not immediately available to comment after being contacted by the BBC.
Peloton sells fitness equipment - with bikes priced at more than $2,000 - fitted with touchscreens. Users then purchase a subscription to access classes streamed live and on-demand.
The New York-based company released the ad in November, but criticism on social media has increased markedly in recent days.
Some people complained it is sexist for a man to give his wife an exercise bike for Christmas, as it suggested he wanted her to lose weight.
Others noted that - despite claims the bike has "changed" her - the already slim actress who plays the main character looks exactly the same.
