The Cross Training Bike+ is Peloton's renamed Bike+, and it suits people who already know classes keep them consistent. Peloton lists a 4 by 2 foot footprint, about the size of a yoga mat, so it fits apartments better than a treadmill. The 23.8 inch screen swivels up to 360 degrees, so you can turn from a ride to strength, yoga or stretching on the floor beside it. Auto resistance follows the instructor's cues, a movement-tracking camera powered by Peloton IQ counts reps and checks form, and Sonos-tuned speakers and a built-in fan round it out. Voice control starts or pauses classes. For a compact gym, the value question is cost. At $2,695 it is $1,000 more than the Cross Training Bike, and the All-Access Membership is sold separately, so the bike makes most sense if you will use the classes. Off-bike workouts also need open floor next to it. A 30-day home trial lets you return it, minus a return fee.
