The "R8" in the Align Pilates R8 Pro Reformer bundle stands for Retro (8 wheel) design, meticulously crafted to mirror various aspects of Joseph Pilates's original "classic Reformers." This includes the carriage and foot bar distances, spring bar positions, foot bar height, and Reformer height. This exclusive bundle comes with leg extensions for the Reformer.
What's included
While incorporating modern elements like height-adjustable rope risers and Silent Ropes instead of leather straps, the design ensures that the pulley position closely aligns with that of a classic machine.
Despite its classic features, the R8-Pro stands as a contemporary Reformer, featuring 4 foot bar heights, including a flat position, and incorporating many rapid adjustment systems.
Equipped with 4 Springs, it offers the unique option to add a 5th spring if desired. The patented Rapid Change spring bar, with 3 Spring Bar positions, allows for quick and seamless carriage position adjustments. The Pro Rope adjusters, conveniently situated behind the shoulder rests, enable swift adjustments to the R8-Pro ropes.
The first Reformer in a "light commercial" category (up to 20 hours usage per week), the R8-Pro is well-suited for both home studios and commercial setups with light usage.
Note: this Reformer doesn't accommodate a Half Cadillac Tower. The R8-Pro warranty covers domestic usage and includes limited light commercial usage, up to 20 hours per week, with a user weight limit of 120kg.
Despite its compact design, the R8-Pro doesn't compromise on quality or performance. With the option to free-stand using an optional Jump Board and easy portability with repositioning wheels, it proves to be a versatile choice for a multi-purpose studio.
Overall, the R8-Pro stands out as the best value light commercial Reformer on the market, blending classic Pilates Reformer geometry with modern take, extended travel, and a broad range of adjustments to cater to diverse body shapes and sizes. It embodies a modern interpretation of a classic theme.
