The out-of-home advertising campaign is displayed on buildings around New York City, each with the same initial message from an individual referred to as @GLOWMD. The message states: “I thought Peloton was just cycling. Y’all need to do a better job at advertising all the other disciplines.”

There are then five different responses, each highlighting some of the different modalities and music themes Peloton offers that people may not know about:

  • “Would it help if we had Trap Runs here?”
  • “Dang, ok, we’ll bring up metal shadowboxing more often.”
  • “Good point, we also have Bachata upper body strength classes you can take.”
  • “You’re right, this ad should say we have Afrobeats barre classes.”
  • “Good idea, we’ll tell more people about our Gospel walks.”

So far in 2023, Peloton seems to be focused on spreading awareness that they are not just a cycling company, and dispelling potential misperceptions about the company. Their New Years ad was called “It’s Not What You Think” and calls out a couple of common preconceived notions about Peloton, and highlights the Tread and Row (note that only some versions of the ad highlight the Row).

    Gospel walks? They have a single gospel walk… and a single bachata strength…this seems to reinforce the notion that peloton is just a cycling company. Confusing advertising.
    Been waiting for more gospel themed classes but it’s limited to 15 minute rides with Cliff and yoga with Chelsea.

    I love the new campaign – its so true – even I find myself surprised by the classes that Peloton offers and I’ve been around since 2017!
