I ditched Peloton and found a smart weight-loss exercise bike that costs almost £900 less

Amazon is offering those looking to increase their fitness levels at home a smart exercise bike that rivals a Peloton machine at a fraction of the cost. Exercise fanatics who have already tried the Echelon Connect Sport Smart Exercise Bike insist that the classes are 'super fun' and the bikes offer 'excellent' value especially compared to the branded alternative.

The Echelon Connect Sport Smart Exercise Bike typically retails for £799.99 but shoppers can pick it up with a massive 41% discount on Amazon as part of the online giant's massive Prime Day sale until 11.59pm tonight (July 17). That makes the smart bike just £474.05, offering a whopping total saving of £325.94.

While that may still sound expensive, especially in comparison to budget non-smart exercise bikes, this is a considerable saving when compared to a Peleton bike which starts from £1,345. In fact, you'd be saving almost £900 by opting for the Amazon version.

The smart bike comes with 45 days-worth of free Echelon Premier membership, giving users access to thousands of live and on-demand classes and training led by world-class instructors. After the free trial, users can choose whether to subscribe to the membership
