At $1,495 — not including the $39 monthly fee to watch video classes — Peloton’s glorified stationary bike has been widely dragged as a plaything of the wealthy. But now it faces stiff competition for most obnoxious product ever, this time from Little Tikes. CNN reported that the toymaker decided to capitalize on surging pandemic sales of the bougie status symbols with something literally no one asked for: a kiddie Peloton.
Branded as “the Pelican,” the stationary bike for three- to seven-year olds even has a screen for watching videos, just like the adult version. CJ Rich of Florida bought a kids’ stationary bike for his now six-year-old son because he thought it would help them bond, per CNN. “I thought it would be awesome for him to have something to copy me," he said. You, too, kiddos, can spend your free time pedaling in place while glued to a screen, just like Dad.
