Peloton Recalls 833,000 Original Bike+ Models Over Seat Post Break Risk

Regulators responded to three breakage reports, renewing concerns from Peloton’s 2023 seat‑post recall.

Overview

  • U.S. CPSC and Health Canada announced the Nov. 6 recall covering about 833,000 units in the U.S. and roughly 44,800 in Canada.
  • The hazard involves seat posts that can break and detach during use; Peloton and regulators cite three incidents and two U.S. injuries and advise users to stop riding immediately.
  • Owners are offered a free redesigned seat post that can be self‑installed after requesting the part from Peloton.
  • Affected bikes are Original Series Bike+ model PL02 with serial numbers starting with “T,” manufactured in Taiwan from 2019–2022 and sold January 2020 through April 2025 by Peloton, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Amazon and eBay.
  • Peloton says Canada has no reported injuries to date; the action follows a 2023 recall of 2.2 million base Bike units for a similar seat‑post issue, and the company is slated to report earnings later today.
