Time to pull out my annual Echelon to Peloton post. I did all the research in 2020 and put together what you need to do after buying this bike. Reposting it here:
Required items you'll need:
Echelon bike[walmart.com] Peloton app[onepeloton.com]
Peloton subscription (Note, if you have a friend who has a bike subscription you can ask if they'll create an account for you instead to save some money)
Two streaming devices
One to connect to the Echelon app[echelonfit.com] to display your statistics, usually a phone
One to connect to the Peloton app to display the classes, usually a tablet
Optional add-ons to improve the experience
Wahoo cadence sensor[amazon.com] - iOS support only - this attaches to your bike's gearshaft and can be connected to the Peloton app to integrate your cadence. You'll already be getting cadence information from the Echelon app on your phone, but if you want it to display in the Peloton app, you'll need this too.
Polar Verity heart rate sensor[amazon.com] - this wraps around your arm and can provide heart rate data to the Peloton app. Instructors will mention heart rate zones to target in advanced classes, so if you want to be able to follow along you'll need this, but it's not required. You will also get more accurate calorie burn counts with your heart rate being measured.
Note: If you are an iOS user and have an Apple Watch, install the Peloton Watch App. It will ping you when your class starts and use your watch as a heart rate monitor.
Bicycle mat[amazon.com] - The official Echelon mat is 27"x47", so this should fit underneath it to catch your sweat and protect your carpet/hardwood floor.
1-3lb dumbbells[amazon.com] - In some classes, the instructor will tell you to do some lifts, so you'll need a set of light weights
Peloton to Echelon resistance chart[etsy.com] - The instructor will call out numbers to change your bicycle resistance during the class, but the Echelon uses a different scale so you can print this out or buy one to have as a handy reference.
Gel bicycle seat cover[amazon.com] - If you are gonna be spinning for a long time, the gel will help ease any pain you have in your backside
To get the baseline experience done, you'll need to setup your Echelon bike as described in the manual. After physical setup is complete, download the Echelon app to your phone, and then plug in your bike and start the pairing process.
Next, if you bought either of the optional sensors you'll need to pair them with their various ipad/android tablet apps to update their firmware.
Once paired, to get your Echelon app into freestyle mode to display your statistics, go to the bottom right of the app, select "More", then "Freestyle Ride".
Finally, you will then be able to load the Peloton app on your tablet, select a class, and start going.
Note: Since this model has a screen integrated, you might not need to download the Echelon app and use your phone for your riding statistics. I can't confirm as I own the previous model that had no screen, but sure looks that way.
Edit (never mind i though this was the sport version (not the sport S)
I don't even have the app.. There is a third party app "bike stats for Echelon bikes" that shows all without log in or pay...
It is free 100% i use it everyday really good bike. Super quiet... Looks good..
edit- not sure how it would work with the integrated screen. I have an older version. you can join the QZ group here on Facebook and the person who built the app is very active there.
Yeah, I figured as long as the basic app displays the cadence and resistance, they can just tape a paper conversion table on the side of the screen in lieu of the app. There's been some deals on TVs with Roku built-in so there's your second screen for the Peloton app
Because they hope it's inconvenient enough for you to not do it therefore, zero effort for them lol
Until I return it to the store for the $100 difference and the shipping cost to my house and from the store completely outweigh the $100. I'd say the majority of people would make the effort for $100 so Walmart "hoped" wrong.
Meh. Price of bike is attractive but the proprietary membership, not so much. I'm In the market for a bike that I can connect to third party apps. I've been keeping my eyes on Schwinn IC4 to hit $600 or so.
If you just want to get on a bike and pedal away, this is probably a good price (Or if you don't mind paying the Echelon price and like their digital offerings). But I've done that at gyms and it's excessively boring to me. Need some sort of goal/competition/group rides to get into a frequent habit, third party trainers just offer more for less.
All my opinion.
Bro, just play your favorite tunes and cycle to the beat. What more do you need?
Bought this bike last year without the screen. VERY nice solid bike. I use the freestyle mode on the app (free) to get stats/miles/watts/cadence and I hung a tv in the gym and use a Roku stick to play peloton workouts. Great way to go without dropping 4-5x the money on a peloton

Saw this deal on another exercise bike. Looks sleek and features seem nice but can't find much info online. Anyone heard of mobifitness? Or have insights on this bike? Slightly more expensive but no subscription to have to worry about.

How are you dealing with peloton cadence conversion
Ok, this review says it should have magnetic resistance. He even shows it on the box but it's the one from sam's club. Since sams's and walmart are the same company I assume it's the same bike.
This or EX-15 from amazon. Suggestions please. Debating between these 2. I want to use peloton app and not depend on Echelon subscription.
Check out the QZ domyos group on Facebook. They can help guide you if your end goal is to use the peleton App. QZ is an app that integrates the bike with non echelon apps (Peleton/zwift) and can do resistance conversions/auto resistance.
