(Updated) Amazon has reached out to explain that it has nothing to do with the design, development or sale of the Echalon Ex-Prime bike.
“This bike is not an Amazon product or related to Amazon Prime. Echelon does not have a formal partnership with Amazon. We are working with Echelon to clarify this in its communications, stop the sale of the product, and change the product branding.” – Amazon
If you are in the market for a connected exercise bike, but the Peloton range are a little out of your budget, you may be interested in a new range of connected exercise gear created by Echelon and Amazon. The Ex-Prime Smart Connect Bike offers a wealth of features at a lower-priced point and offers a more affordable Echelon Connect Sport style exercise bike. To do this the company has removed any connected screen so you will need to supply your own form of a large screen TV, tablet or similar.
“We were built on the idea of attainable fitness for everyone. The Prime Bike was developed in collaboration with Amazon, aiming to create an amazing, connected bike for less than $500 and it’s proven to be a phenomenal match,” said Lou Lentine, President and CEO of Echelon Fitness. “Amazon looking to us to partner on their first-ever connected fitness product is recognition of our commitment to deliver quality at a reasonable price-point as reflected in our explosive growth over the last year.”
