Lanebreak Tread is inspired by Peloton’s instructor classes and takes advantage of the Tread’s hardware to “provide an immersive auto-incline experience through a new Hill Moment. When entering a Hill, the Tread will adjust its incline automatically to follow the curve shown to the user in the 3D world displayed on the Tread tablet.”
Peloton has also stated that Lanebreak Tread includes a Pacer mechanic that rewards members for “following an interval workout design, as well as updated visuals and controls that have been re-designed specifically with running and walking in mind, such as a new Tread-inspired avatar and a breadth of pace-based difficulty options. Additionally, just like the Peloton Instructor class library, Members can expect community-led features such as leaderboards..”

Lanebreak was created to offer an entirely new workout experience that combines an expertly designed workout with immersive graphics, energizing playlists and enhanced game mechanics. Lanebreak classes are fun, immersive, and drive you to hit workout cues in a unique way.”
