A Peloton exercise bike is at the center of a new lawsuit that alleges a man was killed trying to use the bike as leverage to pull himself up from the ground.
The suit claims that the high-end fitness company failed to test or adequately inspect the bike's "warnings to ensure that it was reasonably safe and suitable for its intended purpose and use so as to ensure that it was not unreasonably dangerous under foreseeable circumstances – including the risk of related personal injury from continuously stretching on the bike during workouts, causing the Bike to destabilize and fall, causing injury to the user.
Morgan & Morgan attorneys Mike Morgan and Gennady Voldz, who represent the Furtado family, told FOX Business that Peloton "has a duty to communicate clearly and honestly with customers about the dangers inherent in their products."
