I think I get what Peloton is trying to do here... You find yourself riding your bike in a not-so-nice part of town, then you hear this rap crap from Jay Z. It motivates you to ride harder and faster than you ever have before! |

This is actually a real song??? Oh my God it's about the most irritating thing I've ever heard, at least compared to the Meijer meat song from 3 years ago. Why do they insist everything has to be so loud and obnoxious to sell anything? And none of these morons need to lose weight. This bike is marketed to lame brains with self image problems who have more money than brain cells.

Oh my god this commercial is literally on EVERY commercial break... usually directly before or directly after the f**king twerking blue Volkswagon that is also on literally every commercial break.
I thought the Peloton commercial's previous incarnation was bad enough. I had to stifle my vomit every time I saw the little kid on her tricycle mimicking Mommy and Mommy getting SUCH a kick out of it.

Egregious noise choice here. Can't call this obnoxious stuff a song.
Those machines are massive! Our oldest son had one, and when they were moving, my strong 6'4" husband couldn't even budge it even a smidge. It was smaller than these monstrosities. I also want to know why all the broadcasters are ignoring the rule that states commercials are not to be louder than the programs. Unconcerned boors at the helm. |

The Peloton seems like an overpriced exercise bike for white people or hipsters with too much extra time and money on their hands Those ads are the worst. "I'm so bored in my 4 million dollar house. Time to get sweaty madly pumping on this stationary $2000 bike while watching a video of other people doing the same! My sugar daddy said he would kick me out of the house if I gained another ounce!" |

Take it from a real, hardcore (ex)cyclist - 'Peleton People' are 'wannabees', nothing more...they wish they had real bicycles. They remind me of people like THIS:

I am feeling a little bit of pleasure knowing, or at least hoping, that freaking Jay Z song has been kicked to the curb. Now? Let's just molest this classic old song instead. And, what kind of a gift is an exercise bike? I love you honey, but...Those thighs are getting kinda chunky. |

"To Jill"
They really went out of their way to come up with a female name, didn't they? And the husband is "Jack" I presume? |

OMG, you all had me laughing so hard, I almost drained the lizard in my work clothse! All of you are spot on. After their sweaty Pelaton dicky ride, the clutch their IPhones, hop in the Land/Range Rover to Starbucks to discuss with their similar snotty friends creating a chapter of Antifa un their own localized hipster hood. And that rap crap music. Barf out, gag me with a spoon I'm about to hurl. Imagine if some Ruskies or Nigerian hackers hacked into their Pelaton screens and broadcast sex orgies with alpaccas and goats! Goat Lives Matter! |

No doubt they're on the "Bohemian Rhapsody" movie bandwagon. This is even worse... There's a "Hers" version of the song, by... Meghan Trainor! |

If Pelotan were smart they'd have ghetto hood high crime scenes from my town. Murdermore. We are becoming a sh*t hole very quick with our leadership from hell (City Council).

More hip-hop sh*te that is being forced down our throats. Why the youth enjoys that garbage is a mystery to me.

OMG That is the most horrible commercial that's still on right now in my area. I hate it so much and it's so grating on the ears I want to throw a brick at the tv when it plays.

I concur with the people above who say that this commercial is too freaking loud! I'm just minding my business when suddenly my house's foundation shakes and the heavy breathing "HUHHHHHHHHHH...HUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...HUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....HUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" takes over the entire place.
Not like I would ever buy something like this, but a commercial like this makes me want to boycott the product! I'd say we all should boycott!!!

I can't find the commercial with the heavy breathing. All of these adholes who feel the need to use all of these (popular?) c-rap songs leave a really bad taste in my mouth. I don't like it when this toasted lack of talent spills into my living room! Screw you, Peloton! Same bull c-rap song, different dialog. |

Definitely one of the worst, most annoying, aggravating and "I'll never by one of these" ads ever. Only one I can think of that is worse is that horrible narwhal ad from Sprint a few years ago.times

(I don't do well calling myself an ex-cyclist, but it isn't safe to ride around here and I'm now a few years removed from my hardcore days)
Forget Peloton! Be a Cyclist. The commercial is too loud and the people are all 'wannabees' - I couldn't give a darn what the weather is like! Up in the GreatWhiteNorth (especially the great state of New York, which borders WolfyWorld and Kanada), EVERY DAY is 'outdoor cycling day', no matter the weather without exception... Here's a nice viewing of NYS Bicycle Maps...and wow! You should see Toronto! Or even WolfyWorld (which requires a fare and is basically gated...but we like it like that). https://www.dot.ny.gov/bicycle/maps |

This is the email address to their commercial sales dept.
commercialsales@onepeloton.com They don't really have an email address to any dept relevant to opinions about their ads. No general sales, or public relations, etc. Just support, NYC studios, press inquiries, partnership inquiries and commercial sales, so I figure that's pretty close. Anyway, if you're of a mind to, paste that email address into a your mail server, or use a "throw away" account (like mail.com) if you don't want your primary account associated with what you have to say to them, and let them know what you think of their crappy ads. Especially that obnoxious Jay Z rap crap. Using a side account, you can feel free to abandon the PC pretext and not be afraid to say (within reason of course) whatever you want. And don't pull any punches. Here's the URL for the contact us page with all the other email addresses... https://www.onepeloton.com/company/contact Let em have it, CIHers!!!! |

Actually, "commercial sales" refers to their selling these monsters to "gyms" and work out facilities. It does NOT mean their advertising commercials.

Yea...just leads to more questions, such as...if you ride your bike to the gym, why would you ride one of their stationary bikes?

Yeah, I know that. That's why I said: "They don't really have an email address to any dept relevant to opinions about their ads. No general sales, or public relations, etc." |
