The customers will also get access to Peloton App, delivering extensive workout content that runs across +10 fitness disciplines, including outdoor and indoor running, strength, cardio, indoor cycling, yoga and more.
The international growth is driven by the passionate and growing community of more than 4.4 million members who chose the company's product for the fitness solution at anytime and anywhere, according to Peloton Managing Director for International, Kevin Cornils.
Peloton is set to announce further updates in the coming months about how Aussies can get the global fitness phenomenon experience, he added.
Reportedly, the company has been slow to expand its products internationally and is dealing with supply limitation in recent quarters. There is no information on how much supply will be available in Australia. However, Peloton is investing millions of dollars in boosting production.
